Bug Description

Binary package hint: kdemultimedia

Using kde4.1 on Kubuntu 8.04.
Started Juk and noticed that is goes through all _hidden_ files in my home directory, which takes a very long time with almost 100% cpu usage. I can't tell Juk to not screen the hidden files, so it even goes through the trash can, which rarely can be useful.
Worse, I have a Wine installation, which has mapped some of the DOS devices back into the home directory, so juk goes in a loop.

Recommended remedy: do not screen hidden files by default!

 Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
