           Summary: File type association-related programs in "konqueror"
                    module
           Product: openSUSE 11.1
           Version: Final
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: KDE4 Applications
        AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@xxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: kamikazow@xxxxxx

When I choose to uninstall Konqueror, suddenly critical functionality is
missing from KDE that goes beyond of just not having a second file manager (in
addition to Dolphin) and a web browser.
Let's say that I define Firefox as web browser in System Settings. When
Konqueror is not installed, I can't open web sites in Firefox from Akregator,
unless I set Firefox as alternative external browser from within Akregator's
settings window.

keditfiletype is also no longer available, making it impossible to change
existing file type associations.

IMHO file type association-related programs should be moved to kdebase, kdelibs
or whatever.

==========

Disclaimer: I'm not sure whether this is an upstream KDE bug or an openSUSE
packaging issue. I filed also a report in KDE's Bugzilla:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=179355
If it's an upstream bug, could the one who closes this bug please check if
"Product: konqueror" is the correct choice I made over there? I ask, because I
don't know who decides which apps belong into which module.
Thanks.
