Ben Morris <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from Ben Morris <[email protected]> --- I'd just like to add a few details to this: a more reliable repro, a document showing what Konsole should do, and a possible explanation for what it currently does. The following steps to reproduce are modified to ensure that Konsole's own filename detection feature does not interfere: 1. Enable "Allow escape sequences for links", in the current console profile. 2. $ touch ~/Documents/example.txt 3. $ (cd ~/Documents/ && ls --hyperlink=always example.txt) 4. Ctrl+click on "example.txt". Konsole should open example.txt in a text editor, but instead it pops up a dialog which says: > The file or folder //[your hostname]/home/[your > username]/Documents/example.txt does not exist. The following page states that ls is doing the correct thing, and file:// URLs produced using OSC 8 escape sequences should always have a hostname component. https://gist.github.com/egmontkob/eb114294efbcd5adb1944c9f3cb5feda#file-uris-and-the-hostname Is this actually exposing a bug in KIO? It appears to have special handling for the current hostname, along with "localhost", in file:// URLs, but this special handling does not do the right thing: $ kioclient stat file://localhost/etc kioclient: The file or folder //localhost/etc does not exist. $ kioclient stat file://otherhost/etc kioclient: The file or folder smb://otherhost/etc does not exist. Other hostnames cause the URL to be treated as smb:// URLs, while "localhost" and the system's own hostname are handled specially. However, somehow, the way in which they are handled specially is that they are converted to directory names. This has the curious consequence that you can "fix" hyperlinks in Konsole by doing `sudo ln -s / /$(hostname)`. I am not recommending this as a solution - I'm using it as a demonstration that the hostname really is being interpreted as a directory name. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
