Bug ID: 427924 Summary: GNU Octave Directory Browser Hangs Product: frameworks-kio Version: 5.68.0 Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Open/save dialogs Assignee: kio-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: i.proud...@oxon.org CC: kdelibs-b...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY The GNU Octave Directory Browser window, on first use, hangs for many tens of seconds then disappears. Subsequently it works OK. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Boot system 2. Start GNU Octave. 3. Click on folder icon to the right of the "Current Directory" text field. OBSERVED RESULT The windows hangs for many tens of seconds then disappears. Clicking on "Cancel" button or the window 'X' has no effect. After the Directory Browser window has disappeared, clicking on the folder icon again produces the correct result. Quitting and restarting Octave produces a similar effect except now, after the long pause, the Directory Browser window does not disappear but instead shows the content of the startup directory. EXPECTED RESULT Window displays the content of the directory specified by the Octave startup settings. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: plasmashell 5.18.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0 Qt Version: 5.12.8 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Kubuntu 20.04.1 The "Current Directory" text field is a menu and previously used directories can be selected. This works as expected. I have an Xubuntu 20.04.1 system with the same Octave version. This works as expected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
