Package: konqueror Version: 4:3.3.2-1 Severity: normal Within Konqueror, accessing the URL 'about:blank' (like with most browsers) accesses a blank page. White background, 'page loaded' status message, URL in the location bar. All is good.
Launching konqueror as 'konqueror about:blank' does not actually load about:blank, but rather, doesn't load any page at all. Gray background, no messages, no URL. This would be perfectly fine if having 'no page' didn't prevent many useful options. For example, I cannot middle-click on the page body to drop in a URL from the X selection. I cannot do 'new tab' at all (silently ignores it). Many menu options are grayed out, including those that seemingly have nothing to do with having a page or not, like 'hide menubar'. Note that actually typing 'about:blank' into the location bar (directly after launch) will take you from a gray screen to a white, fully-functional page. This bug could be interpreted one of two ways -- either launching on 'about:blank' should be the equivalent of typing that URL into the location bar, or Konqueror should not deny so much functionality to a no-page situation. If the chosen solution is to provide the real 'about:blank' page, I recommend it be done *without* putting anything in the location bar (as per current behaviour). This allows typing a URL in directly, rather than having to delete 'about:blank'. (This is the sole benefit of the current situation.) -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages konqueror depends on: ii kcontrol 4:3.3.2-1 KDE Control Center ii kdebase-kio-plugins 4:3.3.2-1 KDE I/O Slaves ii kdelibs4 4:3.3.2-4.0.2 KDE core libraries ii kdesktop 4:3.3.2-1 KDE Desktop ii kfind 4:3.3.2-1 KDE File Find Utility ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-21 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfam0c102 2.7.0-6 client library to control the FAM ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-6 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libidn11 0.5.13-1.0 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libjpeg62 6b-9 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libkonq4 4:3.3.2-1 Core libraries for KDE's file mana ii libpcre3 4.5-1.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-1 PNG library - runtime ii libqt3c102-mt 3:3.3.4-3 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxrender1 0.8.3-7 X Rendering Extension client libra ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-3 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
