kdialog always brings up its window in the centre of the screen, completely disregarding the --geometry switch. This is a known problem, already partially fixed in KDE since 2004-08-28, see the above URL. Can we propagate this partial fix into the gentoo KDE ebuild, please? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. kdialog --geometry 100x100-50+50 --radiolist "Select volume level:" \ 10 Low off 30 Medium on 100 High off Actual Results: window in screen centre under kde 3.3.1 Expected Results: window should be (almost) in top right corner if the --geometry was efective.

We do fix critical and security issues, but don't have the man power to maintain large patch sets.
