Bug 268900

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

Starting with an update from KDE 4.6.0 to 4.6.1, launching a URL shortcut to a directory (e.g, $HOME) will launch Dolphin, but it will display an empty folder with 0 items. If I click Reload or F5, then the contents display properly.

Here is a forum thread about this bug, which was confirmed by others on 4.6.1, on both openSUSE and Kubuntu: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=94172

I have been able to reproduce this on three different machines now, running 4.6.1.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Create (or use) a URL shortcut, as seen below.
2) Click on the shortcut
3) Watch Dolphin open up your home folder, but listing it as "empty"

Actual Results:  
Dolphin launches but displays an empty home folder. Sometimes you can see "Loading folder..." in the bottom right corner, and it will enver go away until you Reload.

Expected Results:  
Dolphin should open up the folder normally, as it did with KDE 4.6.0 and previously.

Here is a shortcut that can be used to reproduce the bug.
