Description Eddy 2013-03-03 19:38:55 UTC
Using kget 4.10 as usual, there is a random behavior with finished downloads that get renamed automatically with my username and changed the download path to /home/username. So when trying to delete the download from the list, my entire home folder got deleted (including hidden files). Same happens if I retry the download.

I couldn't reproduce the problem because for most downloads it does fine.
The last time was with files over 600MB in direct download http.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Can you provide a url with which it happened?

Also please describe the steps you did while adding the download.
Comment 2 Eddy 2013-03-03 22:21:50 UTC
OK, I could reproduce the problem again and it's not with finished but with failed downloads.
Here are a few screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/7YUxx
Here are those 3 links: http://pastebin.com/H2pAfakU

I added the download using rekonq 2.2 from the filehost putlocker.com and used internet in other stuff to make fail kget.

Personal comment: I was confused at first because this happened to me a few days ago but I thought it was my fault, then it happened again today while I left my PC downloading those files but I thought they were completed downloaded because they had the same size indicated in dolphin. But apparently kget gives them dummy size or something.

I also have this problem. Additionally, I was downloading some photos to my Picture folder in another partition, and my folder was deleted so.
Comment 6 Eddy 2013-03-05 22:24:21 UTC
Tested with the patch and it works for me.
Comment 7 Lukas Appelhans 2013-03-06 01:07:44 UTC
Yes, it appears to me that KIO at some points reports a filename change to an empty string. This adds a check to catch this.

I will commit this tomorrow!

Thanks for reporting!
