Bug Description

The bug reporter that gets launched by default on Kubuntu 10.04 (drkonqi?) may report a bug to bugs.kde.org when it is not relevant there, for example for Ubuntu-specific bugs, as opposed to KDE SC bugs.

Here's an example: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=237928

A new Kubuntu user may have taken quite a bit of effort to report the bug (for example, waiting patiently while the debug symbols are downloaded, creating a user account at bugs.kde.org). The user is likely to think "Hey, I just followed the instructions that came up to report the problem, and now you tell me to go report it elsewhere? What a waste of time, I'm not doing this anymore."

---------------
kmozillahelper (0.6.2-0ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - Mimetype detection fixes
    - Sets the bug address to Novell's bug tracker (LP: #582723)
    - Refresh 01_default_browser.diff
    - Drop 02_filter_escape_slash.diff, applied upstream
    - Drop 03_save_local_file.diff, applied upstream
    - Drop 04_open_file_cancel.diff, applied upstream
    - Add 02_add_cmakelists_txt.diff to add a CMakeLists.txt file in the top
      directory, which is needed for kmozillahelper to build
    - Remove RPATH-skip override in debian/rules, pkg-kde-tools handles this
      now, and the override was causing FTBFS
  * Switch to source format 3.0 (quilt):
    - Remove quilt build-dependency
    - Remove now-obsolete README.source
    - Remove redundant --with quilt flag from debian/rules
