Description Richard Hartmann 2008-10-01 09:19:42 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

I am not sure if I am filing against the correct component, file re-file if needed.

When you try to create foo/ from the Save As dialog of Konqueror and foo exists, it fail, claiming the directory exists, already.

I suspect it's using -e or some such instead of -d, so it should be easy enough to fix.

I was forced to file against 4.1.1 as 4.1.2 does not exist in bts. Now, I can't change the version. Bleh.

Long story short, this happened on 4.1.2.

I suspect I'm missing something, but last time I checked it wasn't possible to have a file and directory with the same name in the same directory. So either you left out something in your description, or this is an invalid bugreport.

I should not file bug reports while sick. You are right, of course.

Apologies.
