I was using KDE3 from kubuntu packages (kubuntu Gutsy), and obviously links were opened by konqueror itself, as usual. This started to malfunction when I installed KDE4 following the instructions linked above.
I don't know if these kde4 packages were directly responsible for this behavior, but I don't remember tweaking anything in the configuration, so I assumed they were. In any case, the fix is simple enough to not deserve further attention. -- konqueror-kde4 insists on opening links with Kate instead of itself https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/184001 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
