           Summary: kget does not respect offline/online modes and queue
                    settings anymore after importing a textfile with URLs
           Product: kget
           Version: 0.8.5
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kget kde org
        ReportedBy: jan.mette berlin de


Version:           0.8.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 4.2.1 
OS:                Linux

I have encountered the following problem with KGet. I dont know if this will be fixed in KDE3 (would be very nice), but heres the bug:

KGet does not respect the online/offline mode and its queue settings and the maximum number of concurrent downloads anymore once i have imported a textfile with URLS through "file" --> "import text file".


How to reproduce:

1 - Open KGet (obviously :)
2 - Set the maximum concurrent transfers to 1 or 2
3 - Newly added transfers should be queued
4 - Add some links to download. It should work properly.
5 - Now import a textfile with many URLs
6 - When you now add some more downloads to the list manually, KGet will start them and ignores the online/offline settings, the queue settings and also the maximum number of concurrent downloads. In fact, every new download will be started instantly and KGet ingores the settings completely.


This happens once you have imported a textfile, and it seems that this behaviour cannot be reverted. At least i tried it on my machine by deleting ~/.kde/share/apps/kget and ~/.kde/share/config/kgetrc but KGet doesnt work properly anymore...

This is always reproduceable on my machine. If you dont experience it, please remove all links in KGet after importing the textfile, restart the program and add some new download...

The only way to solve it until now is to delete ~/.kde completely :(
