[Bug 258757] [NEW] kopete KDE3 menu entry does not work in KDE4

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The Kopete KDE3 menu entry's executable should be changed from kopete
-caption "%c" %i %m %u to /usr/bin/kopete -caption "%c" %i %m %u , in
order to work right when in the KDE4 desktop.

I've wrote this in my blog, along with other Kubuntu specific problems (
http://djdarkmanx.blogspot.com/2008/08/welcome-to-kde-41-on-kubuntu.html
), here is the part that this report is about:

"Since because of the above issue I could not want use Kopete 0.50.80, I
had to get the good old Kopete back again, for some strange path
reasons, both Kopetes in the menu started kopete-kde4, the menu entrys
looked like this:

Kopete (KDE3): kopete -caption "%c" %i %m %u
Kopete (KDE4): /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kopete -caption "%c" %u

It`s pretty clear to me why I got Kopete(KDE4) with both menu entries,
so I've changed to KDE3 entry from kopete -caption "%c" %i %m %u to
/usr/bin/kopete -caption "%c" %i %m %u and the magic was done, I could
use the Kopete that I wanted. I think this issue is the Kubuntu
distribution's fault, it looks to me that they didn't test KDE4
thoroughly enough, because the original entries work on KDE3."
