Fix thumbnails not shown in Windows and excessive use of virtual memory / handles which may cause crashes and other unexpected behavior by removing file monitoring and only monitoring directories for changes. These problems might still occur with very large numbers of folders but could not be confirmed. However, medium to large collections should no longer cause a problem.

Christian Mollekopf committed changes in [kdepim/KDE/4.10] libkdepim/addresseelineedit.cpp:

Fix displaying of contacts found in the addressbook.

completion->allMatches doesn't provide all the necessary search results resulting in at least some cases in some search results not being displayed.
completions->substringCompletion on the other hand always provides the right results.
I'm not sure why the code is that complex (not sure what problem it's trying to solve), nor if anything else breaks with that change, but I don't think so.

more copy & paste - this will be cleaned up in krusader-next

Andrius Štikonas committed changes in /trunk/extragear/sysadmin/partitionmanager/src:

Fix detection of partitions' paths.

Previously, partition number was added to device path.
However, there are devices with more complicated numbering scheme,
e.g. memory cards may have /dev/mmcblk0p1.
It seems that the easiest way to handle this is to use partition
path instead of device path + partition number .

map, as that's handled in Xcb::Window.

One XLib usage for setting cursor is still present. This will be ported
once all the QCursor::handle() get removed.

Vishesh Handa committed changes in [nepomuk-core/feature/mergeGraphs] /storage:

DMM: Resolve all the nodes before sending them forward

The resolveNode/Urls functions used to return a QHash which contain the
original -> resolvedNode. If it could not be resolved, then resolvedNode
would be blank.

With this patch, all the resolveNode/Url functions just return a list of
resolved nodes. If the node could not be resolved, it is then created at
that moment. It is created in the first graph that can be found
containing that application. This isn't correct according to the old
behaviour, but we just do not care about separate graphs any more.

This patch breaks a LOT of tests which I'm not going to fix right now.
When the entire graph based change have been done, then the tests can be
fixed. The current unit tests depend too strongly on the old graph
behavior.

Aleix Pol Gonzalez committed changes in [kde-workspace/KDE/4.10] ksmserver/themes/default/main.qml:

Improve the KSMServer integration with non-default themes

This patch fixes a problem that appeared when the Shutdown dialog
was displayed and the theme didn't offer the moon image (such as Caledonia).
This patch fixes this by properly anchoring the text item that says
Shutting down in X seconds".

REVIEW: 108797

Jörg Ehrichs committed changes in [nepomuk-core] /:

Change dbus interface to the FileIndexer for status messages

To have a unified dbus interface this patch adds the signal:
* statusMessage(int, string)
and the method:
* statusMessage
* currentStatus

To expose the current state of the fileindexer via dbus.
This change results in the same dbus signal/slot that are used by
akonadi_nepomuk and the FileWatcher.

The integers for the status are the fixed enum values of the Nepomuk2::IndexScheduler::Status
State_Normal = 0,
State_UserIdle = 1,
State_OnBattery = 2,
State_LowDiskSpace = 3,
State_Suspended = 4,
State_Cleaning = 5

Therefore the following method s are marked deprecated:
* userStatusString - bad naming, same as statusMessage
* simpleUserStatusString - not used/returns the same as userStatusString

Permit maximization of windows with fixed position

A window can be "maximized" despite it's position is fixed.
Most obvioulsy for a corresponding of "0", but also in other
cases. The window can still be resized, some size is the
maximum one and there's no reason to prevent the shortcut of
this state.

Alex Fiestas committed changes in [libkscreen] /:

Fallback to the biggestMode when no preferredMode is given

Brokens screens that provide no EDID will fail to indicate their
preferredModeId.

Since this is a problem common on all platforms (it does not matter if
we use wayland, xorg, quartz or framebuffer you will still have screens
with no EDID) the right place to solve this is in the abstraction.

Dan Vratil committed changes in [libkscreen] /:

Introduce new comfortable methods and an API break

- add KScreen::Output::isHorizontal() method that returns TRUE when
output is not rotated or is upside down

- rename KScreen::Output::currentMode property and respective methods
to currentModeId (because they actually return the ID, not the
KScreen::Mode)

- add KScreen::Output::currentMode() method that returns current
KScreen::Mode*

- rename KScreen::Output::preferredMode() to preferredModeId()

- add KScreen::Output::preferredMode() method that actually
returns KScreen::Mode*

Approver will pick the .desktop file on incoming tube, show
message and icon as specified in the file and 'Accept' and
'Reject' buttons.

Christophe Giboudeaux committed changes in [akonadi/1.9] server/src/storage/dbconfigmysql.cpp:

Ignore the custom settings in ~/.my.cnf
Looks like passing the socket path in our arguments is not enough for MySQL. It still tries to run the commands on any database defined in ~/.my.cnf.

We're now adding the --defaults-file argument to mysqladmin and mysqlcheck to only run these commands on the Akonadi DB.

C. Boemann committed changes in [calligra] /:

This patch makes a huge change as to when config ui are in a docker and when it is
in a tool.

This new way of working was discussed with several people. The config
widgets were part of the 8 hour akademy 2012 Calligra UI brainstorming. This commit
implements what was designed.

The needed config widgets when working with a particular tool are now made available as
tool option widgets, so the user now directly has what is needed and nothing more.

The following config widgets are new but in large part reimplement what was already there:
o Stroke config widget,
o Fill config widget,
o Shadow config widget,
o Opacity config widget.

The snap guide config widget has gone the opposite way and is now a docker.

This patch was co-written with: Jean-Nicolas Artaud
A big thank you, and also to Thomas Pfeiffer and Arjen Hiemstra for the ui discussions,
as well as numerous other people

* Build-targets for Android and Desktop

* Search-queries not seem to proper work on Android cause Java garbage collector somehow removes some of our attached dyn-components.
* Some functionality is disabled yet. All major things proper work on both, desktop and Android :)

twenty times now, here's an example:

Update Dynamic playlist. Get rid of energy optimizing code

The dynamic playlist always used to optimize the generated tracks
by different ways.
However the new biases all have hard conditions. The user also
used to see it like this and was confused if a "pretty good" result
was generated.

The new algorithm will generate an empty list if the conditions
cannot be fullfilled





FIXED-IN: 2.8

Ralf Engels committed changes in [amarok] /dynamic:

Simplify dynamic playlist

Since we are no longer optimizing a playlist it's not longer needed
to create playlists in large batches.
Also the repopulate action was apparently never used.

This speeds up the playlist generation and get's rid of issues when
the buffer was not cleared.

Remove more unneeded stuff from the feeder

Since we have direct interface with Telepathy in KPeople,

we'll be feeding just Telepathy ID, alias, avatar and groups,
all the rest will come directly from Telepathy. Makes the feeder
ligher and faster too.
