I can confirm this on Ubuntu 7.04/Feisty with KDE 3.5.6, Kompare 3.4 *** This bug has been confirmed by popular vote. *** Just a guess; is the bug in kompare.h, constructRelativePath, where the comment says "Find a common root."? At least that comment sounds like it could have something to do with the faulty behaviour. *** Bug 159939 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Should be fixed in 4.2.1 and higher. |
