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.

Patch to debian/*

Debian uses a system known as 'alternatives' to provide certain well known binaries such as x-www-browser and x-terminal-emulator.  Other Debian packages are generally configured to call these names rather than a specific browser.

Unfortunately a few errors have crept into the TDE packaging, as compared to the KDE 3.5.10 packaging which was correct in this respect.  These are as follows:

konqueror-trinity: doesn't register itself as x-www-browser
konsole-trinity: registers itself as x-terminal-emulator, but not its man page
ksmserver-trinity: registers starttde as x-session-manager, but not its man page
Additionally konqueror, konsole, ksmserver and twin don't unregister themselves even when registered, due to over-keen s/usr/opt/ in the pathnames specified.

The attached packaging fix should let the awesomness that is TDE play even better with the awesomness that is Debian :-)

It looks good! I'll make a routine test, and then I will push the patch.
