It would really be nice for this bug to be fixed prior to the release of Karmic. Kubuntu Karmic is being advertised as social from the start. The twitter support is a integral part of Kubuntu. I've posted the code that fixes the problem a couple of times. Can someone give me some advice on how I can get the fixed code included in the Karmic kdeplasma_addons package. The file that needs to be changed is 02_microblog_default_configuration.diff. The query string in the Microblog::downloadHistory method isn't getting set properly. Currently, the only query strings that are ever set are "NoAuth:" and "Timeline:". The "Timeline:" string is getting set incorrectly. It is getting set after a check to see if include friends is turned on. The correct string for include friends is "TimelineWithFriends:".

As mentioned, the current code only sets one of two strings. No query string is set if include friends is not selected in the configuration. This was the cause of a plasma desktop crash that has since been addressed in the base KDE source. That fix prevented the crash, but had no effect on the display of friend tweets.
