--- Comment #9 from David Tonhofer <[email protected]> --- How about this recipe: Note that the terminal is set to UTF-8: -- $ echo $LANG en_US.UTF-8 -- Let's do it: Create a test directory and two empty files with UTF-8 sequences in the filename: Create files with UTF-8 sequence "Right single quotation mark" (UTF-8: E2 80 99) and open dolphin. > mkdir TEST; cd TEST; touch "World’s.txt" "World’s.pdf"; dolphin . In dolphin, click on any of the files to mark it. Now press F2 to "rename file". This either works, in which case the filename is in edit mode, but with very high probability the filename collapses to something like "pdfpdf" or "txtxt", with the first three letters possibly shown in bold. a) It seems the directory must have been newly created to get a high-probability "hit". b) It seems the directory must have at least one file ending in ".pdf". If both files end in ".txt", nothing special occurs. c) Two files ending in ".pdf" also elicits the error. d) .... So ... is preview involved? 🤔 Switching off dolphins's "preview" for PDF files does not make the problem go away though. P.S. Stressing the filesystem out by writing a large file increases dolphin startup considerably but otherwise has no effect > while true; do dd bs=1M count=1000 of=trashfile conv=fsync if=/dev/urandom; > /bin/rm trashfile; echo LOOP; done -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
