Installed from:    Compiled sources

This did work before when files were dowloaded with .part extension.

Now
1. Start download
2. Stop it after a while
3. Backup half-downloaded file
4. Remove dowload from kget list
5. Put backed up file on place
6. Start dowloading same file again in the same directory - this would suggest rewriting existing file - no "continue dowload" option which were present before.

The ".part" extension is added by KIO automatically if one writes into a file, so if you only use the KIO plugin when you'll probably have the same behaviour. Now though the multi-kio plugin is activated and used by default and this one does not support such behaviour and won't support it.
