Description Christian C 2018-05-13 18:28:14 CEST 
Description of problem:
When a link to an URL is clicked in the body of an email, an error message window opens saying that a directory named /home/<user name>/.cache/kioexec/krun/<number>_<number>/ already exist.

For example :
$ ll /home/user1/.cache/kioexec/krun/
total 0

If I click on the link :
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/british-english-dictionary-2/
an error window named Erreur - KIOExec opens with the message :
Un dossier nommé /home/user1/.cache/kioexec/krun/20127_0/ existe déjà.
and :
$ ll /home/user1/.cache/kioexec/krun/
total 4
drwx------ 2 user1 user1 4096 May 13 17:53 20127_0/

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.7.2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run kmail
2. select an email that contains an https link (but it depends on something else too. Some links open konqueror instead of firefox !? See bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23027)
3. click on the https link

Comment 1 Aurelien Oudelet 2020-08-16 17:13:54 CEST 
Mageia 6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-09-30. It is no longer 
maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug 
fix updates.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan 
to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to 
a later Mageia version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we 
weren't able to fix it before Mageia 6's end of life. If you are able to 
reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click 
on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent
Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them
obsolete.

If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the
packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you 
most [2].
