Description mikael.liljeroth 2012-03-05 13:21:31 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686) AppleWebKit/535.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/17.0.963.56 Safari/535.11
Build Identifier: 

A diff containing two files:
- extradir/kits/Makefile
- kits/Makefile
produces a result where both Makefiles are located in extradir/kits in the tree view.
extradir/kits is the only directory shown in the treeview.

This can be reproduced with Kompare 4.1.0, kde 4.8.0 on Archlinux and Kompare 4.0.0, kde 4.6.5 on fedora 14.

The diff:

Index: extradir/kits/Makefile

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Kompare with the provided diff
Actual Results:  
Only a single directory is shown in the treeview with both Makefiles in

Expected Results:  
Two directories should be visible in the treeview, each with its own Makefile

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
