From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

And the regression from last patch with drag and drop freezing Dolphin entirely seems unfixed. Honestly I think it's the first time in 7 years I'm affected by an annoying KDE bug, but it still stings regressions are not first priority :(

They're probably waiting for the person that did the patch to fix it, and life gets in the way sometimes.

I've just checked and it's fixed. Must have sliped by me.

I found a report so I didn't do it myself again. It seems it's fixed even though the report isn't.
