Description Michael Best 2008-05-08 18:15:42 UTC
Description of problem:
Copying a file in konqueror and then changing directory, it is not possible to
paste that file.  Copying and pasting between a split view or two windows still
works.

Apparently fixed in a later revision.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kdebase-4.0.3-9.fc9.i386

Comment 1 Kevin Kofler 2008-05-08 18:29:16 UTC
That bug report specifies a huge range of revisions and the fix is somewhere in 
it. I'm trying to identify the exact commit which fixed it.

Is a file selected when you try to paste? If so, it's probably this: 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=159862
http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=791354
That fix appears not to have been backported to 4.0. :-( Make sure you don't 
select a file when pasting and it will work.

Comment 2 Michael Best 2008-05-08 19:08:27 UTC
Is that version of the code in the current codebase?

If not, then this is not the behaviour of the bug I am experiencing.  I have
tried not selecting anything in the destination, it makes no difference for me.

Open a Konqueror window, select a file, either use a menu to select copy or hit
control-C

Control-V doesn't work in that same window.

If I change to a different directory.  On the menus, the text of the action is
correct (1 file, 2 files, etc) but they action is greyed out.

If I have a separate Konqueror window open I can switch focus to that window and
Control-V works, and appears in the context menus.

791354 appears to be a good candidate:

Comment 3 Kevin Kofler 2008-05-08 19:16:08 UTC
Revision 791354 is the fix for kde#159862, which you say is not the issue 
you're encountering, so no, that's not it.

Comment 4 Michael Best 2008-05-08 19:31:20 UTC
I thought I saw something to do with i8ln problems causing this somehow.

Here is another bug you can look at with similar problems:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47418

Comment 5 Michael Best 2008-05-08 19:32:47 UTC
That bug is not useful in this case.


Comment 6 Rex Dieter 2008-05-08 19:41:32 UTC
Confirmed works fine (for me) on kde-4.0.4

Comment 7 Rex Dieter 2008-05-08 19:42:18 UTC
doh, nevermind, works in dolphin, *not* in konq.

Comment 8 Michael Best 2008-05-08 19:50:11 UTC
Just tried the deselection in dolphin, that seems to work fine.  I think I'll
just switch to dolphin for now.

Comment 9 Kevin Kofler 2008-05-08 20:17:14 UTC
Maybe this was our mystery fix?

(This hasn't been backported to 4.0.)

Comment 10 Kevin Kofler 2008-05-08 20:18:20 UTC
I'm not convinced it has anything to do with this bug though.

Comment 11 Rex Dieter 2008-05-09 15:27:54 UTC
I'm of a mind to punt this closed->upstream , and wait for kde-4.1. (or
kde-4.0.5 if it happens to get fixed there).  

Comment 12 Michael Best 2008-05-09 17:20:51 UTC
Doesn't bother me, just brought it up to raise awareness of the issue.

Comment 13 Rex Dieter 2008-05-09 17:28:22 UTC
fair nuf (thx for the report, as always).
