Description Toralf Förster 2016-12-29 17:24:16 UTC

instead always the home folder of the user is opened.
This is annoying if you edit files in a remote directory, accessed via fish://.

With plasma 5.8.4 there was no issue.

I have this BUG too and it is really annoying - open command on any file opened remotely via sftp://, fish://, ... did previously open the same location and now it opens home folder.

Open on local files works ok.

OpenSuse Tumbleweed + Plasma 5.8.5

This is still occurring in full kate git checkout from 2 weeks ago. 
I did some tracing - the bug appears to be in the QFileDialog static function 
 getOpenFileUrls() .
I was testing with  fish open'ed files, and the correct fish url is passed in the dir param for getOpenFileUrls.  You can even force in the fish and file scheme - and it will still default to the users home directory.

May need to re-assign this from Kate to the which-ever Bug tracking component would cover base level Qt function issues.
