Description Jan-Willem van de Meent 2009-03-30 15:24:39 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package

After updating to KDE 4.2.2 (from KDE 4.2.1) a new bug  appeared in Kaddressbook.

Whenever I select a contact in the contact list that has more than one e-mail address asssociated with it, a pop-up dialog appears (twice) asking me to "Select E-mail Address". Double-clicking the contact no longer opens up the editor. Instead, it shows the same dialog that appears with a single click.

I would mark this as critical as the addressbook becomes virtually unuseable when a dialog pops up every time you select a contact.

Same here on Ubuntu 8.10 with KDE 4.2.2 packages.

Comment 3 Frank Reininghaus 2009-04-06 21:09:55 UTC 
Thanks for the bug report. I can confirm this in 4.2.2 and trunk (rev. 949705).
Comment 4 Frank Reininghaus 2009-04-06 21:33:01 UTC 
It seems that the commit that caused this regression is 

http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=943766

At least I can say that 943766 is buggy for me, but 943765 is not. I'll CC the developer who committed this change.
Comment 5 Jan-Willem van de Meent 2009-04-09 22:50:18 UTC 
I can confirm that reverting commit 943766 fixes the issue. As far as I can tell, reverting the patch has no side effects (running 4.2 branch SVN).

Same problem in Mandriva 2009 binaries
Comment 7 pipapo 2009-04-16 00:40:11 UTC 
I can confirm. Same on debian unstable.
Comment 8 Frank Reininghaus 2009-04-19 15:23:46 UTC 
Thomas McGuire has fixed this issue in trunk and in the 4.2 branch (-> fix will be in KDE 4.2.3):

http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=951964
http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=953498

I can confirm that it works in trunk: the pop-up does not appear anymore when clicking a contact with more than one e-mail address :-)

The development of the old KAddressBook will be discontinued for KDE 4.4.
Since the new application has the same name, but a completly new code base we close all bug reports against the old version and ask the submitters to resend there reports against the new product.
