Description Harm van Bakel 2005-11-19 10:46:32 UTC

Version:           0.8.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
Compiler:          gcc 4.0.2 
OS:                Linux

I generally use the keyboard to enter the path to the directory where files (selected by 'list all links') should be saved. However, when I type a path to a folder, say: /data/tmp/, the 'select folder' dialog actually selects the /data/ folder. This behaviour is not consistent, and only happens the first time after opening a fresh 'select folder' dialog; i.e. the second time I type exactly the same path, it does select the correct folder. Selecting by mouse always works like it should. I've attached some screenshots before and after typing a path to a download folder.
