Description J E Drews 2003-12-03 02:13:05 UTC 
Version:           1.5.93 (using KDE 3.1.93 (CVS >= 20031111), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20020320 [FreeBSD]
OS:          FreeBSD (i386) release 4.9-RELEASE

I tried to drag n' drop two *.rtf documents I sent home from work, into Konqueror. Both documents showed up as "unknown.png". The same action happens if I drag and drop the *.rtf documents onto the desktop.

 I am using a POP3 mail account with SMTP.

To reproduce:
1) download an e-mail that has an *.rtf attachment.
2) Drag and drop the attachment to the Konqueror file browser or the Kde desktop. 
3) The the dragged *.rtf displays as "unknown.png" .

NOTE:  I can open it directly from Kmail and the document displays normally. I can also do a "save as" from the mime tree and that works.

This bug report is similar to bug No. 68673

The platform is FreeBSD 4.9 Release
Comment 2 Ingo Klöcker 2003-12-03 10:22:50 UTC 
Is this maybe a duplicate of http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=65553, i.e. does it only happen if you drag the icons but not if you drag the text next to the icons?

Hello Ingo:

 No it happens no matter where I click on the attachment. I tried clicking on the text and clicking on the mime symbol. I both cases the resilt of the drag and drop is still "unknown.png".
Comment 4 Ingo Klöcker 2003-12-04 11:17:31 UTC 
Can you please provide a message which demonstrates this problem?

*.rtf doc that shows upas "unknown.png"

Ingo:

 Here is the document that shows up as "unknown.png", when dragged from Kmail
to the Kde desktop.

I can't reproduce the problem with the latest development version (1.5.94). I assume that the bug has been fixed. If you should be able to reproduce the problem with KDE 3.2 Beta 2 (or later) then please reopen the bug report.

I'm seeing the same effect on FreeBSD 5.2-BETA, using a homebuilt KDE 3.2 Beta 2 build of kmail/kontact.

Steps to reproduce:

View Ingo's message to kde-pim (Subject: [Kde-pim] [PATCH] Fix bug 69656 (kmail quits after sending a message from the tray) and Message-Id: <200312071827.51206@erwin.ingo-kloecker.de>)

Click on the attached diff, opens correctly in kompare.
Drag the attached diff to the desktop, select "Copy here" and it's created as "txt.png" which is a 48x48 PNG file (attached).

Forgot to say, my build was with fully patched qt-copy, and using GCC 3.3.3
Comment 10 andy 2003-12-07 19:38:38 UTC 
Sorry for the noise, after retesting _again_ it is bug:65553 I am seeing.

According to J E Drews this is not a duplicate of 65553. Andy OTOH confused what he experienced (namely bug 65553) with this bug report. I'm sorry for the noise that the following status changes will cause.
Comment 13 Ingo Klöcker 2003-12-07 23:44:26 UTC 
Re-close as WORKSFORME for now.
