For some reason, when I try to file a new bug in the "kcm" component of the "kdeconnect" product (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=kdeconnect&component=kcm), that component isn't listed in the form.

Compare to what happens if I try to file a new bug in the "macos-application" component of the "kdeconnect" product (https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=kdeconnect&component=macos-application).

The 'kcm' component of kdeconnect is closed to new bug entry as it is no longer active. Given you're on a Linux desktop presumably, please put the bug to messaging-application or common.

KCM?

OK, thanks.

Maybe KCM could be removed from the list in https://bugs.kde.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=kdeconnect ?

Also, the bug I wanted to report was in the attached screenshot. Is that not a KCM?

Comment 4 Ben Cooksley 2023-10-05 15:03:10 UTC

Yes, that is a KCM - however as it forms part of the overall Linux desktop experience bugs relating to it should go to "messaging" (as not great as that name is).

I'm afraid the describecomponents page always shows all components that a product has, regardless of whether they are currently open for bug entry or not.
