Description Pascal Bakhuis 2009-01-14 17:41:48 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Using KDE 4.1.87 all entries in the launcher (widget) are double.
See http://www.imagebam.com/image/b23b9023619114 for an example.

Further.. which might be related to it, both Dolphin and Konqueror duplicate pasted contents.
For example, pasting /usr in the addressbar results in /usr/usr.

Opened a thread about it on the openSUSE forums:
http://forums.opensuse.org/pre-release-beta/404968-kde-4-2-double.html

Which might provide some additional information over time.
Comment 1 Aaron J. Seigo 2009-01-15 09:38:17 UTC
the dolphin issue is something else entirely, you're seeing double entries because there are, well, double entries for the apps on disk somewhere. installation issue.
Comment 2 Pascal Bakhuis 2009-01-15 09:59:35 UTC
Actually, everything is installed just once.
the alt+f2 search does show everything once properly.

If there some command to output wherever it's grabbing data from to confirm there is only one entry let me know and I'll post the log.
Comment 3 Aaron J. Seigo 2009-01-15 19:06:19 UTC
krunner only shows unique results, since it can get multiple hits for broad search terms even when things are only installed once. this prevents it from showing multiple results even when there is an installation mess up.

the menu is required to just show what's in the structure, however.

See this screenshot that shows the entry is in fact only done ONCE.

The entries at the very top, BlueJ and GreenFoot are the ones that I added myself and I can garantuee you I did this only once.
Comment 5 Alexander Rössler 2009-01-17 11:38:16 UTC
Same problem here!
Comment 6 tarzhito 2009-01-17 12:49:25 UTC
Same here on OpenSuSE 11.1 KDE4.2RC1 4.1.96 from Factory repo
Comment 7 eroskoller 2009-01-17 13:48:32 UTC
Same here... despite of single entrie under kde menu when using the search engine on "kickoff" the result shows duplicate entries .... the same is not happen with krunner , which it's working really good..

openSuse 11.1 kde 4.1.96..Factory
Comment 8 Leonidas Arvanitis 2009-01-25 08:19:53 UTC
I think it also affects more stuff in KDE.
e.g. here, in System Settings both Default Applications and File Associations have duplicate entries.

Also, might this be an OpenSUSE specific bug?

OS:     Linux 2.6.27.7-9-default x86_64
System: openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64)
KDE:    4.1.96 (KDE 4.1.96 (KDE 4.2 RC1)) "release 78.1"

Same here on OpenSuSE 11.1 KDE4.2RC1 4.1.96 from Factory repo (again)
Comment 12 zak89 2009-01-29 17:35:15 UTC
I am getting the same issue on openSUSE 11.1 with KDE 4.2 from the Factory. Apparently it was not solved before release. Occasionally I get the same behavior in KRunner (every entry shows up twice.).
Comment 13 David Talaski 2009-02-02 06:40:10 UTC
Tried reinstalling and the problem remains
OS: Linux 2.6.27.7-9-default i686

Comment 14 Alex Richardson 2009-02-03 14:49:40 UTC
