By "contact KUbuntu", I did mean the QA or its forum.
Obviously, among all the Linux distros out there, Ubuntu is the biggest.

I like to work with the mainstream(本家 in Japanese, Ubuntu in this case).
There is something wrong. Yes. I have a strong feeling that it is a
bug but I am not sure. So I encourage him to get help from Ubutun(
forum frist, not QA) to kill
2 birds with one stone:

1. Get the OP's problem done ( Of course, with Tlug's help, he can
solve his problem)
2. Determine if it is a bug, bring it into attention and get fixed in
the next version.

At least this is the way I am doing:
"Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow".
