Description Florian Reinhard 2009-04-15 09:59:18 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)

Kpackagekit catched a unknown error and showed me some messagebox that i should report a bug and offered a details button, but what i got wasn't what i expected (backend: apt):

* newlines seem to be gone, therefore hard to read
* in case you got a *lot* of details and you maximize that messagebox the details part will cover only half of your screen thus not better to read.

so:
* don't remove newlines from debug output or if not removed show them
* make the datails box grow in case you maximize the messagebox

ok, first the maximize problem a kmessagebox problem, should be assigned to kdelibs, the details part has the problem that i need a MarkDown parser to be able to fix that, but i didn't had time yet to create one. As soon as i cover all the features gnome packagekit has i'll try to start that..
I'm not sure but afair new lines works with others backends, not sure though.

I'm reassigning to kdelibs as KMessageBox is the one to "blame" in the maximize case, the text, displays newlines now.

Hi,

kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years.

KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have implemented this wish.

If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or against the application that shows the issue.

We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or component.

Greetings
