I was hoping that my contribution about this well documented bug in KDE
would generate some discussion. Actually, I was hoping that someone from the
KDE Development Team (if that's the right term) would at least tell me if my
idea of adding a new button onto the window, for generating indexes, is a
good idea or not.

How about some discussion about how to fix this bug?!? Or am I being too
naive?!?

BUTTON to be added to the window.

Hello KDE people,

The attachment is a snapshot of the window, showing the bug -- which I have
edited with GNU Paint, to add a "button".

What I'm proposing is that a new button with the caption of "Recreate
Missing
Index" be added to the form -- please refer to the attached PNG file.

I'm only a newbie at Linux and Kubuntu (& KDE 4.0)... However, I thought
that
this bug called for some lateral thinking. If the index file is missing,
then
to my way of thinking, why not have a button to click on to recreate it. The

way I see it the software needs to have enough 'SMARTS' to know:

(a) what the filename of the missing index file should be.
(b) the path to recreate the missing index file.
& (c) what needs to written to the new index file (e.g. what it should
include)


I don't have enough understanding of how Kubuntu or KDE works... but maybe
someone else does.
