Package: meld
Version: 3.20.2-2
Severity: normal
* What led up to the situation?
0. `cd` to a Git working copy with at least one modified file.
1. Run `git difftool -d -t meld`.
2. Open a modified file.
3. Press the "delete" key on the keyboard.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The character to the left of the cursor not deleted, the following
error is printed to stderr.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/meld/dirdiff.py", line 1260, in
on_button_delete_clicked
self.delete_selected()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/meld/misc.py", line 54, in

paths = self._get_selected_paths(pane)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/meld/dirdiff.py", line 1308, in
_get_selected_paths
assert pane is not None
AssertionError
* What outcome did you expect instead?
The character to the left of the cursor deleted, no errors.
When invoked with `git difftool -t meld`, "delete" key works as
expected - the problem is only reproducible in dir-diff mode.
