            Bug ID: 470750
           Summary: 'View Document' should check for existance of local
                    PDF at keypress, not on list build
    Classification: Applications
           Product: KBibTeX
           Version: git (master)
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: User interface

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***

When hitting CTRL+D or clicking 'View Document' in the context menu, a local
PDF file that has been made available after the search results list has been
built is not seen as existing.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a KBibTeX file with local PDF documents attached in entries.
2. Delete/Unlink/make-it-a-broken-link linked local PDF file
3. Hit CTRL+D / View Document on an entry with that linked PDF
4. (PDF is not opened, makes sense)
5. Make PDF available again
6. Hit CTRL+D / View Document on an entry with that linked PDF again

OBSERVED RESULT

PDF is not opened, instead other source like link is opened again

EXPECTED RESULT

PDF is opened

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Manjaro Linux

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I guess the list including the available viewable sources is built at the
beginning. I suggest checking for existence of the sources right at the time
CTRL+D is pressed or 'View Document' is clicked.

I use git-annex (https://git-annex.branchable.com) and having local PDFs
available as broken links initially, then fetching them is a common procedure.
