Package: kde Version: 3.5.10 Severity: important
KDE reports 3.5.10, but it seems it's a mix 3.5.9/3.5.10, as synaptic rather reports 3.5.9. Here is the description: Keyboard navigation with arrow keys into the KDE file selector follows a pretty strange algorithm. "Up" and "Down" keys do sometimes select the "Previous" and "Next" file in the list, but sometimes skip some of them and jumps directely a few files before or after. This looks like bug #456933 reported for konqueror. The next/previous algorithm seems to be related to the length of the filenames. Create a directory with the following files: a b1234 c d123 e f1 g1234 h12345678901 i1234 j12345678901 z then within kate invoke "Open file", and navigate with keyboard into the file list portion, starting with file "a". If you press "Down" again and again, you'll get: a > c > d > e > f > g > i > j > z "b" and "h" are skipped, which are sensibly longer than "a" and "g". But "j" is not, suprisingly. Once at "z", press "Up" again and again, you'll get: z < i < g < f < e < d < c < a Here, "j", "h" and "b" are skipped. Note that changing the font to fixed/monospace does not change anything, though I suspected it would. Well, I'd be really interested in knowing the development process that lead to such a strange behavior. That's really puzzling. Yours for more information.
