Bug ID: 466578
Summary: ancient sourceforge page first search result for
kdiff3, shows latest version as 0.9.98-2
Classification: Applications
Product: kdiff3
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Unspecified
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: reeves...@gmail.com
Reporter: ke...@adec.dev
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Searching for "kdiff3" in major search engines (I tried in Google, Bing, Yahoo,
DuckDuckGo) give https://kdiff3.sourceforge.net/ as the first result, and this
is very out of date - it says the "Current version" is 0.9.98 (2014-07-04).
(Not sure where else to report this)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Search for kdiff3 in your favorite search engine
OBSERVED RESULT
Top result links to ancient outdated and unmaintained sourceforge page,
claiming 0.9.98 (2014-07-04) is the latest version.
Further down is often also https://github.com/KDE/kdiff3, which has links to
maintained pages but I think itself is not the official repo.
EXPECTED RESULT
The sourceforge page should either not exist, be updated with the latest info
(as of this post, 1.10.70) - possibly link or redirect to one or more of the
following, maintained pages:
https://apps.kde.org/kdiff3/
https://invent.kde.org/sdk/kdiff3
https://download.kde.org/stable/kdiff3/
Note that https://sourceforge.net/projects/kdiff3/ does provide the maintained
repo and binary download links, so maybe having https://kdiff3.sourceforge.net/
go away and redirect there is a decent step towards preventing lots of
downloads of the outdated version.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
N/A
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Let me know if there's another place this should be reported.
