Default Applications duplicates Component Chooser in kcontrol

[Rocco Stanzione]

In kcontrol, under KDE Components, two of the applets, Component Chooser and Default Applications, are duplicates of each other. They contain the same options, and changing one of them changes both of them. One should be removed.

Why has this been rejected without any comment while the error is simply true ?
I can confirm this.
It doesn't impact systemsettings which is the default kubuntu graphical configuration tool, but people can also use kcontrol.
You totally agree on the point one should be removed.
I'll take care to hide or not install one of those 2 entries, and keep the same one in both kcontrol and systemsettings.
Added on my todo list.

Just after I reported the bug I caught a conversation in #ubuntu-bugs stating that kcontrol was (to paraphrase) being abandoned in favor of system settings. Please feel free to submit a debdiff and assign the bug to Jonathan Riddell, as was suggested to me in the channel. I'm with you - I'm not ready to give up on kcontrol until system settings is ready to take its place (and maybe not even then).

No need to bore Riddell with this.
I just commited a patch to kdelibs to hide componentchooser.desktop from kcontrol.

The bug reporter told me to close it in #ubuntu-bugs after we talked about it.
