[Bug 574820] [NEW] ktimetracker: manually edting task times is a pain (regression, fixed upstream)

[Sybren Stüvel]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdepim

In Ktimetracker, released with KDE4.4, the interface for adding and
editing tasks has been changed to remove the ability to manually
add/subtract a certain amount of time from a task.

The interface that replaces this via "Edit Times" gives a complete list
of tasks in the current calendar file - meaning you have to scroll
through the list trying to find your task (and it may be named the same
as another task). To edit the time, you then have to click on the
"StartTime" and "EndTime" field, editing a fiddly calendar widget (which
is not obvious in itself).

Reproduce:
* Ctrl+Alt+N to create a new task item
* Enter task name
* Click Edit Times and you will see a list of all tasks in the current file

Expected:
* "Edit Times" should just show the times for the current task, when editing a task item
* It should also allow you to +/- the current time as the interface in KDE4.3 allowed. Rather than having to select a calendar start and end time.

Actual:
* Click Edit Times, search for task in the list (it helps to sort by the "Task" table header) - and your task may not be there. If it is edit the StartTime and EndTime by double clicking the relavent fields.


This issue is a regression, and has already been fixed upstream, see
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226915 - Please include the
upstream fix in a Kubuntu package update.
