Minimal solution
Thank you very much for this patch! I have no plasma installed neither, and it is a pity that kio does not adapt to this.. I hope your patch will be integrated, or a proper workaround given.. As a temporary workaround you can emulate the necessary dbus interface with a custom script. See https://pastebin.com/Q8sEg9G6 for a python example. Requires python, python-dbus and python-gobject. Just keep it running in the background and you should see the copy dialog again. Thanks for the patch! Patches in bug reports tend to be overlooked, so please feel free to submit it at https://phabricator.kde.org/. Even if it's rejected in its current form, it will probably spark a conversation about the best way to implement the changes. *** Bug 401607 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I'm aggressive, simply because as developers you are not sensible enough to your user base. I read about this topic, when I was just trying to solve the problem for my desktop computer, and I noted that it is not something 'new'. You received several request of support, and you MUST KNOW that this is a strong really weird usability issue for tons of users. As a developer, I fixed it strait in a minute.!! You do not act, just because you wanna not act. Moreover, you never think for a minute, that people wanna know in the official documentation, that can be read from the help menu, something about this. Never realized that asking people to 'disabled by unchecking "Track file transfers and other jobs" without any help to find in which of the 1000 options in the desktop they can find this setting is useless. And, finally, I'm reporting a bug. Since, I followed everything but I cannot still get my stupid obsolete and clearly old fashioned progress bar in its window. That patch is not enough; all it has the effect of doing is to *always* show the progress dialog, even in Plasma when KUIServer is running. I'll see if I can modify it to produce the correct results for everyone. Git commit 580fec7c0b20a4e9b138ce71b1380a49e5180591 by Kai Uwe Broulik. Committed on 12/04/2019 at 10:39. Pushed by broulik into branch 'master'. [KDynamicJobTracker] When kuiserver isn't available, also fall back to widget dialog It asks kuiserver whether we need to display a widget job tracker. However, kuiserver itself might not be available at this point, so handle the call itself failing, too.
