Thanks for the answer.
1. There's an open bug against kompare about saying "this patch is
incorrect" for perfectly fine patches (kde bugs).
2. My bug occurs for patches with several directories/files modified.
Some example. For patch containing modifications for the following
files:
a/b/c/d.txt
a/b/c/e.txt
a/b/c/f.txt
a/g/h/i.txt
a/g/h/j.txt
a/g/h/k.txt
Kompare would create the following directory graph:
a
g
c
d.txt
e.txt
f.txt
h
i.txt
j.txt
k.txt
instead of expected
a
b
c
d.txt
e.txt
f.txt
g
h
i.txt
j.txt
k.txt
Some parts of directory tree are put in invalid places.
I will try to report a bug, but for that I must recreate working
example, which may take a while.
Regards,
Robert
