Very good that you have filed the bugs! However, as you have noticed,
most of the bugs are pushed upstream as they are in fact KDE bugs.
Definitely file KDE issues there as that is from where the fix must
originate.

Well, to open the issues upstream I have to be sure it is not
SUSE-specific. I do not have other distro installed currently, so I
can only guess. That's why I preferred to open them in novel bugzilla
in hope that developers will forward it usptream, if necessary. BTW,
it sounds a bit strange to me that when the bug is identified as
upstream, it is now marked as "resolved" in Novell bugzilla. I would
expect some kind of "monitoring" state. Otherwise how will Open SUSE
developers know when the upstream bug is fixed and they can pick the
fix up?

5) kdetv is not ported yet to KDE4. So one have to use KDE3 version.

I looks like it's in the process of being ported. I would ask the
kdetv devs, as despite the name I don't think it is an official KDE
application.

It was in KDE for many years. It was initially called kwintv, but at
some stage was included in KDE and renamed to kdetv. It is in the
process of porting and is in KDE "playground", so I hope in some short
time it will be back.


6) webilder (program that downloads pictures from webshots and flicker
and makes them "wallpapers" is not working in KDE4 yet).


This also does not seem to be a KDE app. However, I think there is
some way to do this within KDE 4, at least I remember seeing reference
to it once but cannot find it now.

I agree that this one is not official KDE app. It works with KDE and
Gnome. The author specifically mention it does not work with KDE4 and
requested help with porting. I even tried to look into it (and learn a
bit of Python on that occasion), but found that the problem is first
of all in mapping of different Qt3 APIs to Qt4. This is a bit beyond
my current capabilities.


Seems fixed in Amarok 2.2:

Thanks, I'll re-check
