By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Ilya 2009-11-11 03:41:36 CST 
Installing KDE3 removes Gambas and other Qt3-based applications already installed from the Ubuntu repository.
Comment 1 Timothy Pearson 2010-05-07 10:17:51 CDT 
This should really be "CANTFIX".  The problem is actually a conflict between the remaining old KDE3 applications (that depend on the old KDE3.5.10 libraries) in the Ubuntu repositories and the new Trinity libraries which occupy the same space.  The KDE3 applications still in the official archives should not be there and will be deleted over time.  Those applications should be repackaged with a -kde3 suffix and compiled against the new Trinity libraries to ensure future availability.

If you find any KDE3 applications from the official archive that are not also present with a -kde3 suffix in the PPA, please file a bug requesting packaging of that application.
Comment 2 Ilya 2010-05-08 06:23:55 CDT 
Why there is no such problem on OpenSUSE?
Comment 3 Timothy Pearson 2010-05-08 13:40:59 CDT 
Probably because OpenSUSE was willing to rebuild packages in its official archive for KDE3, OR because nothing really changed in the base libraries over the past couple years.  The Trinity project actively changes those base libraries to make Trinity better, so software compiled two years ago in the official archive really cannot be expected to work properly with the new base libraries.
Comment 4 Ilya 2010-05-08 14:00:52 CDT 
KDE3 in OpenSUSE is not officially supported. But there is no problem with it. One even can run KDE2.
