Description Syam 2008-10-09 14:16:19 UTC
Description of problem:
When Dolphin is invoked, it opens $HOME/Documents, no matter what the Home Folder setting is.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Dolphin v1.1 on KDE v4.1.1

How reproducible:
Open dolphin by clicking on the Kickoff menu item or from Alt+F2.

  

Additional info:
If the directory Documents is not available, dolphin opens the home directory.

Comment 1 Kevin Kofler 2008-10-09 14:25:12 UTC
kdebase was the right package to file it against, there is no longer a standalone dolphin package. Anyway, it's a dupe, closing.

Comment 2 Kevin Kofler 2008-10-09 14:26:35 UTC
Hmmm, actually, it's related, but not exactly the same. I'll keep this open for now.

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 03:42:14 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 4 Steven M. Parrish 2009-01-09 20:54:04 UTC
Still want to keep this open Kevin?

Comment 5 Kevin Kofler 2009-01-09 21:08:34 UTC
Yes, it's a different bug, I mistakenly marked it as a duplicate. It probably needs to be reported upstream (separately).

Comment 6 Syam 2009-01-10 03:16:50 UTC
This may have something to do with https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166088
There are two things to be noted here:
1. Dolphin has a 'Home Folder' in it's configuration. Clicking on the 'Home' button opens this folder.
2. There's a 'Documents path' setting in 'System Settings' > Paths.
I have not confirmed the implication of that yet.

Comment 7 Kevin Kofler 2009-01-17 23:14:20 UTC
So according to apachelogger, the issue is that Dolphin's .desktop file quotes %u, as in "%u", when it should just be %u. He committed a fix to upstream trunk and 4.2 branch. We may want to backport this to our 4.1.4 update.

Comment 8 Steven M. Parrish 2009-01-18 14:35:51 UTC
I confirmed this definitely fixes the issue.  +1 to backport this to 4.1.4 ASAP.

Comment 9 Rex Dieter 2009-01-22 14:30:43 UTC
targetting kde-4.2 (unless someone wants to do the work to backport/patch/issue-update before 4.2.0 lands)

Comment 10 Than Ngo 2009-01-28 13:20:34 UTC
it's fixed in 4.2.0
