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.

Hi,
  I have been using Trinity 3.5.13.1 for a number of years, maybe even four, and everything was very smooth. I love it!

  Today all the sudden there are an endless amounts of cookie alerts from the KDE daemon. It says I received a cookie from tgftp.nws.noaa.gov ... not sure what to do about it... is it some kind of an attack or hack? Why would kded (if that is the KDE daemon) need cookies? Thanks for any help on how to deal with this situation. Adding picture of the message!

I think that it may be related to changing the URL for the kweather. You're updated KWeather to 3.5.13.3 (preliminary)?

I got KDE 3.5.13.2 after the lastest update of TDE. Ever since I denied the cookies kweather no longer works. It is very strange if I type in kweatherreport KSFO it tells me "The requested station does not exist"

Yes, that's exactly the problem mentioned in the bug 2684. You can install KWeather from preliminary packages TDE 3.5.13.3 - apt source like this:

deb http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/slavek-banko/axis/ubuntu wheezy main
