Description Travis Evans 2014-07-02 01:33:34 UTC
When downloading something in Get Hot New Stuff (a cursor theme in my case), if a server error occurs, such as a timeout, the Install button never gets reenabled when the error appears in the bottom of the window. It is impossible to try again unless the whole application is restarted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click Install to install an item when some kind of server failure or timeout occurs

Actual Results:  
Install button stays grayed out permanently.

Expected Results:  
The button should be re-enabled. Clicking it again should retry the operation on the web server.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Dear Bug Submitter,

This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

Can confirm with both QWidgets and QtQuick dialog.

Hi,

kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few years.

KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have resolved this bug.

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
Christoph Cullmann
