Summary: kfind hangs because of fifo files
Version: 3.1-71mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P1

Hi,
I found out that kfind hangs when making a search by content in a directory with fifo
files.
1. create a fifo file (for example mkfifo /tmp/tst_fifo)
2. start a search by content (important !) in /tmp with kfind. For example look for
all files
with containing text "foo" ...
3. it should hang because kfind tries to read content of fifo file (strace hangs on
open("/tmp/tst_fifo", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) ).
Thanx :-)
PS: Btw, it's really annoying that kfind:
1. takes all CPU sometimes for a simple search !
2. doesn't refresh correctly its window so we can't press stop button to abort a
search
by content on big files/directories. Only solution is to kill the window !
