Comment 22 for bug 42759

I have to admit I had not thought of an update silently killing my
hack :) - In my books this is a VERY serious flaw and would have
thought it was #1 priority to be fixed. I only discovered I was
unprotected by accident & was not best pleased.

I am a very green bug fixer, just setting up a KDE4 dev environment. I
don't know about packaging or I would have a go myself.

Cheers

Dave

The unavoidable price of reliability is simplicity.
