Bug Description

Binary package hint: dolphin

1) lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
vitor@seattle:~$ uname -a
Linux seattle 2.6.28-8-generic #24-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 18 18:48:55 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux

2) apt-cache policy dolphin
dolphin:
  Installed: 4:4.2.0-0ubuntu3
  Candidate: 4:4.2.0-0ubuntu3
  Version table:
 *** 4:4.2.0-0ubuntu3 0
        500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What I expected to happen:
a) Configure System Settings > Keyboard & Mouse > Mouse > Icons > Double-click to open files and folders
b) Open Dolphin and show the folders tree (F7 or View > Panels > Folders)
c) Single-click a folder in the tree, the folder's contents are shown in the main panel on the right.

4) What happened instead:
In step (c), it doesn't show the folder's contents. I have to double-click the folder in the tree to do that.

I hope this is a bug, and not the planned behavior...

Thank you.

Upstream has committed a fix for KDE 4.3, but we could probably backport it to our KDE 4.2 patches.

Yeah, KDE must have included that in the KDE 4.2 branch at the last minute or something, so the fix was released with KDE 4.2.1.
