[Bug 36247] Re: Kontact sidebar with knode even if knode not installed

Tue Dec 19 11:01:17 UTC 2006

Every intergrateable component (/plugin) of Kontact should be installed
not by Kontact, but by the components themselves. E.g. if you install
KNode, it installs its component into Kontact, same for KMail etc :)

It is really annoying for newbies to see a cryptic error message for
something they usually don't even know or think of something different.
A backward step for the usability.

If a Doe clicks on News (at least it is so in my russian i18n - News on
Russian), he thinks of latest news and not of newsgroups - and if he
clicks there, he doesn't get wrong (from his POV) functionality, but an
error message about something being broken.
