Description Xavier Poirot 2011-09-08 08:10:27 UTC 
Version:           1.3.1 (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

I installed Konversation when I was running Firefox v6.0.1
Though, very recently, Firefox upgraded to 6.0.2

When I try now to open a link in Konversation by clicking on it, it says the error message written below.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Install Konversation on a version of Firefox
Upgrade Firefox's version to a newer one, or just another one
Try to click a link in Konversation.

Actual Results:  
Error message:
Kunne ikke starte browseren:
KDEInit kunne ikke starte "/usr/lib/firefox-6.0.1/firefox"

In English, would give:
Could not start the browser:
KDEInit could not start "/usr/lib/firefox-6.0.1/firefox"

Expected Results:  
To open the correct and upgraded browser, which is currently located in
/usr/lib/firefox-6.0.2/firefox and so on with new versions.

Let me know if this is a distribution issue or I don't know where from.. :)

This is a global KDE bug, after investigation...
Comment 2 Eike Hein 2011-09-08 15:15:17 UTC 
For the record, Konvi just calls a kdelibs method called KToolInvocation::invokeBrowser() to launch the browser.
