Description Murz 2021-07-20 06:49:01 UTC
SUMMARY
When we pass the text with html code, that contains <a href=""> links to some urls, to the kdialog msgbox content - it renders successfully even with underlined blue links, but those links are not clickable.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch the command in console:
```
kdialog --msgbox '<h1>KDE is great!</h1><a href="https://kde.org">All glory to <strong>KDE</strong>!</a>'
```

2. See the window and try to click on link, it does nothing.

3. Try to pass same text in passivepopup mode:
```
kdialog --passivepopup '<h1>KDE is great!</h1><a href="https://kde.org">All glory to <strong>KDE</strong>!</a>'
```
It will be clickable.

OBSERVED RESULT
The links are not clickable in msgbox mode.

EXPECTED RESULT
The links should be clickable in msgbox mode too!

Same HTML code works well in Zenity and YAD libraries - links are clickable.
