> --- Comment #166 from Nathan Shearer <kde-20091...@nathanshearer.ca> ---
> I just extracted an archive which contained a file that I could not
> copy/edit/move/rename/delete with dolphin. The file was simple readme file
> inside a nested subdirectory called L'$'\351''ame.html'
>
> The error messages in dolphin were extremely vague and did not indicate in an
> way that KDE and QT are incapable by design of handling files with these
> encoding. They did not inform the user why the file was causing these problems
> or even hint that they needed to be renamed in a terminal because of a WONTFIX
> on this bug.
>
> The only reason I knew what to do is because I encountered this bug years ago
> when operations on these files actually worked. Any normal user will have
> absolutely no idea what to do, and higher level systems will not handle these
> failures gracefully when these directory structures can't be modified because
> of a simple filename.

> The file or folder L'$'\351''ame.html' does not exist.

> Could not delete file L'$'\351''ame.html'.

> problem.
> Could not remove folder "".
>  - All other files deleted, but the nested file was ignored leaving the user

> It might be a lot of work, but a solution to this problem would be to store

> string, then they are interacting with the degraded version and deciding to
