fine, now it's "ported" to KDE5
I will continue to repeat it, but it's due: there is *no* KDE5. It was ported to Qt5 and Frameworks 5.
you sound like a upstream developer
I am a primarly a member of the KDE community.
- no bookmarks
Do you mean "no import of old bookmarks"? Because support for bookmark is available See below for the answer of "why the import was not added" (not an excuse, but you can copy manually the xbel file)
which one? where is it located?
~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml The new location is ~/.local/share/konqueror/bookmarks.xml
- no toolbar settings from the previous install
I don't think that any application kept this in the migration.
and then you guys wonder why Linux don't reach the desktop?
i develop software for 15 years now and the codebase don't share a single line *but* never a user lost any configuration because it's really so easy take the code dealing with the old configuration, read it and write it into a new format (if that's needed at all)
Some changes are expected in a major version bump. Most applications migrated the content; the toolbar disposition is a different issue.
- no support for sftp://
It's not provided by Konqueror; install kio-extras.
bla - obviously Konqueror does not have any KIO support at all
[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ rpm -qa | grep -i kio-extras kio-extras-16.12.3-1.fc26.x86_64
What I said is true and correct; kio-sftp support is in kio-extras.
That said, I'm using kio-extras 17.04, but there are no relevant differences with 16.12 by looking at the code.
- no passwords for network-locations previously used
That's a KWallet migration issue, I guess.
no, that's because upstream decided with *KDE5 period* that there are now *two* wallets for KF4/KF5 applications instead have one storage broker and wrappers for both worlds so that things are interchangeable
The then maintainer of KWallet had a problem with supporting the old format in a reliable way while migrating to Frameworks 5. This was solved with a really recent version of Frameworks, which can read the old wallet, thanks to the contribution of a Gentoo packager.
WTF is wrong with the KDE developers attitude that the main question due every upgrde is "curious what they broke now from my workflow"
Konqueror was not developed. The fact that it was ported was already a plus. And unless someone will step to maintain it, it's going to be replaced by Falkon.
i miss to see the "plus" when 90% of my daily workflow is now broken
the "plus" until today was that nobody touched Konqueror to "make it better"
The plus was that something was done. If nothing would have been done, you would have still complained that it was abandoned. I mean, really, what is the solution? That the old maintainer (who is taking care of what most people can take humanly care already) should have been chained to a chair to work on Konqueror? No one stepped up, there was some work to finally at least port it. That's it.
