           Summary: Files that prevent full SVN Checkouts
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: Ziggyesque at hotmail.com


Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                MS Windows
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Since KDE is advertising the capability to be compiled under Windows starting
with Ver. 4, I feel these count as errors in the repository.

These files have colons in name which are illegal for Windows filesystems, and
*nix shell path separators, and crash SVN when encountered during a Checkout or
Update on Windows:

These also break SVN due to Windows considering them duplicate filenames.

These may not be all of them, they're just what showed up trying to check out
some subdirectories of /trunk to a NTFS partition using TortoiseSVN 1.5.2, with
multiple seperate checkouts required to get the files that don't have naming
problems.

Fixing requires changing the filenames to be Windows compatible if they're to
be retained and updating all references to them in whatever other files require
it. 
Authors fields taken from the SVN commit handles for each file, which may be
used to assign who should fix each instance.
