ii konversation 1.0.1-4ubuntu2 user friendly Internet Relay Chat (IRC) client for KDE
If you click on a nickname containing a backslash (let us use "test\test" as an example) and e. g. try to whois the user using the UI, the backslash is silently converted to a forward slash (so the actual nick whoised is "test/test"), so the whois either fails or possibly shows information about the wrong user.
Directly using "/whois test\test" works, though.
This bug could apply to more UI functions than just whois, I just did not test any.

This is marked as fixed in Upstream.
Could you please check if its also fixed already in Hardy Heron (actual package 1.0.1-4ubuntu3)?
