Comment 2 Helge Hielscher 2004-10-27 19:45:12 UTC 
also have a look at Bug 64695: Including locate updatedb module ...
Comment 3 Maksim Orlovich 2004-10-27 21:39:36 UTC 
We do not add things based on wishlists; it's up to the maintainer to ask for their inclusion. If the maintainer wasn't the reporter, I'd close this as INVALID. I'll suggest you e-mail k-c-d instead.

@Maksim Orlovich

Please have a look on the Reporters name and on the homepage URL of kio-locate.
Comment 5 Daniel 2004-10-28 00:50:33 UTC 
I think with bugreport/vote was more like a call for supporting documentation before Armin Straub would go and plead with kio maintainers about the package's inclusion.

This step effectively eliminates the "Does someone really need this?" question. 

I hope kio-locate gets into base soon. Good luck Armin.
Comment 6 Armin Straub 2004-10-28 13:57:03 UTC 
I'm really sorry, if such bug reports should not be posted.
But Daniel is right. If no one would like kio-locate to be included, it shouldn't be (and distributed by itself).
What is meant by k-c-d (I already feel ashamed...;-)?
Comment 7 Alex Radu 2004-11-01 08:02:26 UTC 
I hope it gets included, it is very useful.
Comment 8 Stephan Binner 2004-11-07 21:41:53 UTC 
Comment 3 already said everything necessary, still seeing no mail on kde-core-devel.
Comment 9 Kurt Pfeifle 2004-12-29 21:23:31 UTC 
>>> What is meant by k-c-d...?

I think he was just too lazy to write kde-core-devel (the mailing list).

Armin, please write a mail to that list and ask for inclusion of kio-locate into KDE-3.4.
