Description Christoph Feck 2018-08-02 18:21:45 UTC

Steps to reproduce:
- start dolphin and click at right-end of URL bar to get to type-in mode
- click linedit Clear button, a 'file' drop-down button appears
- select Other > gdrive and accept the URL, which now reads 'gdrive://'
- click on a configured account in the gdrive listing

What works is removing one '/' from the URL before clicking on the account.

Using Remote/Network from Places panel, clicking "Google Drive" also results in 'gdrive:/' URL instead of 'gdrive://'.

Using master versions. Might be a KIO bug, re-assign as appropiate.

I can reproduce also with MTP (which will error out with "Malformed URL .").

KIO probably shouldn't assume that any kioslave supports URL in the form "<protocol>://". In the gdrive case for sure the "gdrive://" URL is wrong.

It seems this has been fixed in recent KIO versions. This step now results in a 'gdrive:' URL and then everything seems to work.
