Description m.wege 2011-11-29 08:23:50 UTC 
Version:           0.0.1 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

When I attempt to download http://download.learnfree.eu/ubuntu-packages/live-usb-install-2.3.2-all.deb the screen shows garbage instead of downloading the file. The download works correctly in Firefox. I have also checked file associations, there is an association to x-deb to Gdebi, Kpackagekit and ark, which obviously does not work. The problem also occurs with akregator and rekonq, so I assume it is related to an underlying component of KDE.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
see above

Actual Results:  
see above

Expected Results:  
the deb should be downloaded.

Just saw it myself. But still Firefox is able to handle it and deal with that wrong content-types. Would be cool, if Konqueror would be able too.

I couldn't reproduce the bug and no duplicates were found. I downloaded the file  with no problems at all in Konquerer.

Please file a wish about the handling of unavailable downloads, this would need to be implemented.
