           Summary: avatars do not work on windows due to usage of path()
                    instead of toLocalFile()
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jpeters7677 at gmx.de


Version:           0.70.90 (using Devel)
Compiler:          msvc2008 x64
OS:                MS Windows
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Pictures of avatars aren't visible and I cant 
set an avatar to my user account. The reason is that kopete fails to 
write down the avatar as png in my user profile. I can see the complete 
folder structure under:
c:\users\[myuser]\appdata\roaming\.kde\share\apps\kopete\avatars\

but when writing the image to the disk the path looks like:
D:\c:\users\[myuser]\appdata\roaming\.kde\share\apps\kopete\avatars\User\50ebb0ef48852b1f0fa7f48ff7750ff3.png 
(thanks to Process Monitor)

According to Ralf Habacker from the windows team this is an path() vs.
toLocalFile() issue. I tried to replace all occurrences of path() with
toLocalFile() in kopeteavatarmanager.cpp and the issue is (at least for me)
resolved.
