Description Jurian Sluiman 2010-03-03 14:56:25 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have an Akonadi based addressbook and the Nepomuk runner enabled in KRunner. If I search for a contact ('John') I find some results. There is an VCard icon and the description says 'PersonContact'.

That's all fine but selecting one of these results in a Kate editor with some text describing the contact. That's not useful and a better option would be a nice window popping up with the information displayed like the most-right panel in Kaddressbook.

This is an Akonadi issue. We simply need a way to handle akonadi:/ URLs properly.

Quoting bug #329115 (which I reported, because the bugzilla query for "contact krunner" took ages):
---
Status quo: When querying KRunner for contacts, it opens the VCard retrieved from Nepomuk in Kate. This is inconvenient.

Suggested solution: KAddressbook should be opened instead.

Improved solution: Show a preview of the contact, to e.g. allow quick retrieval of a phone number or email address.

This bug has only been reported for versions older than KDEPIM 4.14 (at most akonadi-1.3). Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a recent version of akonadi (part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Comment 6 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:44:57 UTC
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
