Description swagfortress 2023-05-10 13:34:18 UTC 
SUMMARY

The About Ark window has a link with an older URL that redirects to a newer URL. It would be better if the link just used the newer URL.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Ark.
2. Open Ark’s hamburger menu.
3. Go to Help > About Ark.
4. In the About tab, click on the link that’s right beneath the copyright notice.

OBSERVED RESULT

<https://utils.kde.org/projects/ark> is opened in a Web browser, and the Web browser gets redirected to <https://apps.kde.org/ark/>.

EXPECTED RESULT

<https://apps.kde.org/ark/> gets opened in a Web browser.
