Description Björn Lindqvist 2023-07-23 14:03:26 UTC
I have lines of the following format in my system logs:

    plasmashell[715]: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/Task.qml:286: Unable to assign [undefined] to QString

To investigate, I hover, right click and press "Open link". However, Konsole parses the URL as *including* the ":286:" part following the file name so the file cannot be opened. While the parse may be in accordance with the specification, it is not user-friendly. I suggest that Konsole gets some smarts so that characters that almost always serve as separators (i.e ",", ":", and "\"") are not included in the parse. At least for parsing URLs in the file schema.
