Description Itay 'z9u2K' Duvdevani 2003-05-31 16:30:56 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.2.2 
OS:          Linux

While working with a Hebrew layout with XFree 4.3.0, brackets will appear )like this( when typing Hebrew text.
I understand that was a workaround for a bug in XFree that was fixes, thus this workaround became the bug I'm reporting.

can you give more information about when or how this workaround was 
established?

Comment 2 Itay 'z9u2K' Duvdevani 2003-07-14 22:07:11 UTC

As I see it, the workaround was established by Trolltech's people, who I have also 
submitted this bug to. According to their reply, it should be fixed on the next Qt's beta. 
 
I think Qt simple replaces ( with ) and ) with ( when typing RTL text, but I havn't looked 
into the code, just guessing.

I hate this bug!

Qt bug, not a KDE bug.
