Description Michael Eklund 2014-05-12 17:07:21 CEST
Description of problem:
I followed this guide: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Dropbox and in the section about syncronizing Dropbox there is a clickable link in the system tray. Once the link is clicked it opens in Firefox, however the URL is wrong.

Example (clicking results in something like this in Forefox):
https://www.dropbox.com/cli_link?host_id=e57a4c4ggj7543fyuyt5453476a15de+to+link+this+device.%0A

and yields this result from Dropbox.com:
We haven't seen this host before. Did you use the right id?

Revoming the last bit in the URL, like this:
https://www.dropbox.com/cli_link?host_id=e57a4c4ggj7543fyuyt5453476a15

and it works.

How reproducible:
Each time it's installed.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Uninstall
2. Reinstall

Could be a translation string bug?

Installer and Release bugs should always be set to cauldron, because once the isos for a stable version have been created, they cannot be changed.

This bug was filed very long ago, for Mageia 4. Was this bug still valid for Mageia 5?

(If so, please do _not_ set the version to "5". Only asking because if it was still valid for Mageia 5, that then we'll know we'll have to pay attention to this issue when testing the 6 alpha's and later).

Please close this bug report if the problem was solved in Mageia 5hhhh

Comment 2 Rémi Verschelde 2015-09-21 11:07:25 CEST
Not an installer bug.

Component: Release (media or process) => RPM Packages

Samuel Verschelde 2015-09-21 11:28:24 CEST

Version: Cauldron => 4

Comment 3 Samuel Verschelde 2015-09-21 13:20:55 CEST
Mageia 4 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-09-19. It is is no longer 
maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug 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 4'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. If it's valid in several versions, 
select the highest and add MGAxTOO in whiteboard for each other valid release.
Example: it's valid in cauldron and Mageia 5, set to cauldron and add MGA5TOO.

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].

As announced over a month ago, Mageia 4 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-09-19. It is is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.

This issue may have been fixed in a later Mageia release, so, if you still see it and didn't already do so: please upgrade to Mageia 5 (or, if you read this much later than this is written: make sure you run a currently maintained Mageia version)

If you are able to reproduce it against a maintained version of Mageia, you are encouraged to 
1. reopen this bug report, by changing the "Status" from "RESOLVED - OLD" to "REOPENED"
2. click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. If you know it's valid in several versions, select the highest and add MGAxTOO in whiteboard for each other valid release.
Example: it's valid in cauldron and Mageia 5, set to cauldron and add MGA5TOO.
3. give as much relevant information as possible. If you're not an experienced bug reporter and have some time: please read this page:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly

If you see a similar issue, but are _not_sure_ it is the same, with the same cause, then please file a new bug report and mention this one in it (please include the bug number, too).
