Bug ID: 457269
Summary: Common prefix finder does not exclude special
characters
Product: ark
Version: 22.04.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Reporter: f...@fkfd.me
CC: aa...@kde.org, rthoms...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When creating an archive of several files, ark will try to find a common prefix
of all filenames. If the prefix is at least 5 characters long, the archive will
be named "<prefix>.tar.gz" or "<prefix>.zip" by default. However, if the prefix
already ends with a dot, the archive will be something like "files..tar.gz"
with two dots. The same goes for '_', '-', and perhaps many other special
characters.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create two files named "abcde.c" and "abcde.h" in dolphin
2. Select both, then right click
3. Hover on "Compress"
OBSERVED RESULT
context menu gives "abcde..tar.gz" and "abcde..zip" (two dots)
EXPECTED RESULT
sensible filenames like "abcde.tar.gz"
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.96.0
Qt Version: 5.15.5
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I commented this under #451203
(https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451203#c3), but felt it was off-topic so
I went here to file a separate bug entry.
I am writing a patch right now.
