First an apology to KDE and KOffice I shouldn't have used the word lies.

Sorry if this doesn't land in the thread which wouldn't surprise me I
don't trust outlook as far as I can throw it.

Are you talking about http://bugs.kde.org if you are everything seems to
be done via POST rather then GET commands so you don't seem to be able
simply edit the URL. Though I think you might be talking about some bug
report feature in KOffice which I don't have installed ( I'm build this
it for Kitra sounds like it might have some good features we can use at
work ) and I presumed I would have to install new version of KDE which I
didn't really want to do to be able to build with KDE 3.3.

Yeah I'm not actually using such an ancient build I'm using CENTOS 4.2
which is well based on RHEL4.2 which should cover a reasonable userbase
it is getting a tad old now. It had Qt 3.3.3 and some redhat version of
KDE 3.3.1-3.11 Red Hat ( and as such needs an extra work around to build
).

Such actions are not needed I'm not paying for support so I don't expect
that I should be support the only reason this email happened was I
couldn't I put in a bug report for build that wouldn't build on the
advertised platform.

I've my extract source which had various changes to fix things some of
them in appropriate ways.
