Description Szczepan Hołyszewski 2020-03-20 06:12:19 UTC

SUMMARY

The Windows Management -> KWin Scripts applet offers no UI to uninstall a kwinscript. Merely deactivating it is NOT a satisfactory workaround, because I want to be in control of what is installed, full stop.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install a kwinscript through systemsettings
2. Try figuring out how to uninstall it

OBSERVED RESULT

It is impossible to figure out how to uninstall it.

EXPECTED RESULT

It should be obvious how to uninstall it.

But uninstalling other KNewStuff/GHNS items works?

Comment 2 Alexander Lohnau 2020-07-20 09:15:28 UTC

Uninstalling works, except for the UI issue in BUG 382136.

Maybe we should implement a functionality to actually delete an entry. For such usecases we should add functionality to KNS, this way we could avoid issues like BUG 417985.
