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 Nick Leverton 2013-03-27 18:11:51 CDT 
KDE3 used to use locale settings for at least two purposes that I can name beyond the basic desktop language.

One is that KDE3 used the configured collating sequence (not necessarily the default for the language) when Konqui filemanagement profile was sorting filename lists alphabetically.  Although I set LANG=en_GB, I have LC_COLLATE=C so that uppercase always sorts before lowercase in the way that $UNIX intended :-)

Another is that the Google search shortcut has language specific variants such that, for instance, on KDE3 gg: goes to www.google.co.uk when LANG=en_GB, rather than to www.google.com.

However TDE doesn't use these : it always sorts files case insensitively as is the default for my language en_GB, and gg: always uses www.google.com. 

I have checked (by running strings on /proc/<pid>/environ) that the locale environment variables are all still correctly set under TDE for all of kdm, startkde, kded, kdeinit and the konqui instance I was testing.

This has been bugging me for a while but I've only just got round to converting my old Lenny partitions into a chroot to confirm it as a regression so sorry for the delayed report.  I'm taking a guess that it is tdelibs involved here.

It would be really great if we can restore this behaviour.  I would imagine non-English locales will be even more pleased !
