Description Xaver Wurzenberger 2009-11-25 00:58:52 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.3)
Compiler:          gcc 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

I was told in an ealier wish that konqueror has to be configured to change akregator's behaviour when it comes to web browsing. It is bad enough that you can't do this in akregator as such as 99% of the people, like me, won't realize that.
But there is one more problem: If the konqueror package itself is not installed - and I don't think that's rare since konqueror is not the std file manager anymore - there seems to be no comfortable way to edit these settings at all.

Considering it must be pretty trivial to include a button that brings up konqueror's settings dialog (konqueror still must be installed 'somewhere under the hood', right?), I think this is easily solvable.

" was told in an ealier wish that konqueror has to be configured to change
akregator's behaviour when it comes to web browsing." 

actually this is wrong, systemsettings has everything you need to change the file associations (systemsettings/file association and search for html, then "embedding" tab).

Even removing konqueror won't prevent akregator from displaying the articles: khtml and kjs are parts kdelibs while konqueror is part of kdebase-apps.

Exactly, that's what I meant. It's all there, we'd just need a button that links to these settings and brings up a konqueror-like config dialog.
