* When I select "Report a Bug" from the "Help" menu, it opens a "Launch Application" box and tells me to "Choose an Application." However, when I try to "Chose," it won't allow me to search for any sort of application! This may be a problem with Linux, but I think it might be a bug in reporting a bug!... (note: same is true for "Request Feature") [[User:Jwild|Jwild]] 20:54, 1 September 2011 (CEST)
: This is not a bug, but the current solution is really not handful. You need to go to /usr/bin/ to find the firefox binary (for example). This problem occurs also by opening an external link in an article. This seems to be a GNU/Linux specific problem and is already tracked with this [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3376639&group_id=175508&atid=873518 feature request].

* In the Content Library, is the reported article count correct? For example, one collection I made myself with 16 articles, says "(17 articles)" in the file's description in "My Library." More drastically (and actually, why I first noticed it), The Wikipedia 0.8 collection proclaims itself to have "45.000 best articles...", yet it says "(139.462 articles)"! Is there a way to check that?  [[User:Jwild|Jwild]] 20:34, 1 September 2011 (CEST)

: This is wrong and right! Redirects are included (and I think it shouldn't. See [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3396763&group_id=175508&atid=873515 this bug report] [[User:Kelson|Kelson]] 20:50, 1 September 2011 (CEST)


 
*<s> In Library in the library sections "My Library" and "Get New Files", neither the down or up arrow keyboard strokes work to navigate. This would certainly make it more user-friendly! [[User:Jwild|Jwild]] 20:34, 1 September 2011 (CEST)</s>

* Start a content manager download. Then go to "My library" and delete a file. You'll notice that your download has stopped. We should keep downloading it in the background regardless of what i'm doing. [[User:Tomasz|Tomasz]] 19:22, 18 August 2011 (CEST)

* Opening an openZim file after Kiwix is already running causes a second window to load. The second window looks great and its content manager is correct. But the primary window does not have the newly opened collection leading to confusion.

: Yes, I think everything should run only in a Window... but I have had a look, this is not so trivial to implement. [[User:Kelson|Kelson]] 18:20, 16 September 2011 (CEST)
