Description Ralf Jung 2024-01-14 09:59:34 UTC

SUMMARY
When I select multiple files and cut them (Ctrl-X), and then paste them somewhere else, some files are missing. Dolphin seems to only actually move about half the files (the first half), and the rest stays at the original location. This means it can take 4-5 attempts to actually move all the files I want to move, which is quite tedious.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a bunch of files (5-50)
2. Ctrl-X
3. Navigate to another folder
4. Ctrl-V

OBSERVED RESULT
Only about half the files get moved

EXPECTED RESULT
All the files should get moved

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: - (I use Gnome as my DE)
KDE Frameworks 
Version 5.107.0
Qt 
Version 5.15.10

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This used to work fine in the past but broken with a update a few months ago.

Sorry this happened. Data loss is no good! Did you by any chance see the overwrite dialog at any time during the move job? If so, this is most likely Bug 479082 which is fixed now.

To be clear, there is no data loss. Half the files get moved, half the files stay where they were.

Not sure what you mean by "overwrite dialog" -- is that the one asking me what to do when one of the files already exists in the destination? No that dialog did not show; the files did not exist in the target.

Note that I am using Dolphin in a Gnome session; not sure if that can potentially make a difference.

I see. Doesn't seem like the same bug, then.

Using Dolphin in GNOME shouldn't mage a difference.
