> waiting for upstream picking this up Hello, I am the current maintainer of Konsole. I'm quite happy to commit the patches for this, but you do have to make sure that I am aware of the problem. I didn't know anything about it until I came across the bug report today.
The best ways to get the attention of myself and other developers are: - Email the konsole mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - Email the current maintainer (email address found in the "Help -> About Konsole" dialog in Konsole itself) Or you can email the more general kde-devel mailing list. I do look over bug reports from time to time, but looking over all 145 bug reports, much less addressing any of them, takes time. Plus the bug reports do not usually give enough context information to indicate the severity of the bug for the user affected. "Please add a dcop command to enable feature X" doesn't tell me that it is a serious issue for Kubuntu users because it basically means they cannot install some important software using the supplied graphical tool. Aside from that, I really have to ask if there is any other way of knowing that questions will be asked and allowing the user to respond. Waiting for silence using the terminal's "detect silence" feature seems very ugly. If the silence timeout is too short then the terminal will keep opening up. If it is too long then people will end up waiting for ages wondering why the system is taking so long. -- adept does not show wanted user input https://launchpad.net/bugs/37696 -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
