Hello,

I'm trying to fix bug 130772 (http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=130772):
-------------------
Bug 130772: running KInfoCenter from prompt causes error message
Version:           3.5.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.3) 
 
 To reproduce 
 - press your favorite shortkey for "run program" 
 - type "kinfocenter" and press "enter" 
 - kinfocenter is started 
 - an error message pops up: "KDEInit cannot start KInfoCenter" [bug #1] 
 - the popup is behind the "run program" dialog so it cannot be seen immediately [bug \
                #2] 
------------------

The most obvious and easiest fix for this is the following patch:

deller@p100:/home/cvs/kde20/kdebase/kcontrol/kcontrol> svn diff
Index: main.cpp
===================================================================
--- main.cpp    (revision 563912)

-  KAboutData aboutKInfoCenter( "kcminfo", I18N_NOOP("KDE Info Center"),
+  KAboutData aboutKInfoCenter( "kinfocenter", I18N_NOOP("KDE Info Center"),
     KCONTROL_VERSION, I18N_NOOP("The KDE Info Center"), KAboutData::License_GPL,
     I18N_NOOP("(c) 1998-2004, The KDE Control Center Developers"));


-> But the side effect of this patch is now, that the "Report Bug" functionality \
won't work any longer, since bug reports are tried to be sent to the "kinfocenter" \
module,  while in the bug system it's still named "kcminfo". Can we add a \
"kinfocenter" module to bugs.kde.org which maps to "kcminfo" ? Or should we rename \
"kcminfo" as "kinfocenter" in the KDE bug tracking system ? Any other proposals or \
ideas ?

Helge
