           Summary: man: kioslave does not support .lzma
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandriva RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: cchittleborough cluemail com


Version:            (using KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
OS:                Linux

On systems where man pages are stored with lzma compression (eg., Mandriva 2008.0), the man: protocol cannot open them. See function stripExtension() in kdebase/runtime/kioslave/man/kio_man.cpp, which does not check for *.lzma files.

Which raises a more fundamental question: is there a kioslave for lzma?
