Bug Description

Binary package hint: kontact

When filing the "Seach" field in Contacts - Kontact, when the "in" is at "All Fields" it does not filter profession.

Is this normal?

Thanks.

I am able to filter on "Role" without any issues. I am using Feisty (KDE 3.5.6), which version are you using?

KDE 3.5.5.

But filtering the "role" field works too for me. I was talking about the "profession" field (when you go in edit contact, details). Maybe I should change this to a feature request?

Interesting. I don't have a "Profession" field at all. I do have a "Role" field, which I am assuming are the same thing (common sense don't fail me now). I apologize as well for my previous post. I meant to say that I have a "Role" field and not a "Profession" field, but I can search it fine when the filter is set to "All Fields"

You do have the option as well of upgrading to KDE 3.5.6 in Edgy if you are interested. To do so, you can follow the instructions located at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-356.php.

Yup, your 2,000 words directed me to another location which of course you were right. I will mark this as a wishlist and see what happens with upstream KDE on this, or maybe someone here can work up something.

This is still valid for KDE 4.1.1. Setting triaged due to confirmed upstream report.

KAddressBook is being rewritten for KDE 4.4, so KDE has stopped making bug fixes for older versions. Thanks for understanding, and have a nice day.
