Package: kaddressbook Version: 4:24.12.3-1 (KAddressBook 6.3.3) Severity: important Tags: patch fixed-upstream trixie
Dear Maintainers, KAddressBook 6.3.3 (as packaged in Debian Trixie) no longer displays the “Web” / “URL” field in the contact view. This is a regression: the field used to be visible and clickable in all previous releases. Upstream bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=510833 Upstream fix commits: - https://invent.kde.org/pim/kaddressbook/-/commit/ ceba74714c34c7361bb83e5b4b2bea2ebe6c5d8b - https://invent.kde.org/pim/akonadi-contacts/-/commit/ 87057957aaa6bcc538f113efa679e6469bb436fd The fix only changes an HTML template file (`src/viewertemplates/ contact_embedded.html`) and is therefore safe to backport to the current 6.3.x/24.12.x packaging. It restores the correct display of contact website links (no ABI or build- system changes required). Upstream maintainer (Laurent Montel) confirmed the patch and indicated it will be part of 6.6.0. However, 6.3.x is end-of-life upstream, so users of Debian Trixie currently cannot see or click Web/URL fields. Could you please cherry-pick this patch into the Debian Trixie branch or upload a small -2 revision with the fix? This would restore expected KAddressBook behaviour for current testing users.
