Description Shriramana Sharma 2024-09-04 08:46:21 UTC
Hello. I'm using Kubuntu 24.04.1 LTS.

I don't seem to have noticed this upon initially installing 24.04, so it might be some recent update.

In the location bar I used to see breadcrumbs like:

> Home > Child1 > Child2

but now in the place of “Home” I'm seeing (I18N_EMPTY_MESSAGE)

So the above is like:

> (I18N_EMPTY_MESSAGE) > Child1 > Child2

Please fix this. Thank you.

Versions:
KDE Plasma: 5.27.11
KDE Frameworks: 5.115.0
Qt: 5.15.13

Other bugs:
Bug 388570 and bug 336149 seem to also be above the same wrong text appearing, but they are old and closed and in other software, not Dolphin.

I now notice that even in Notifications the Home folder whether alone or as part of a full path is depicted thus.
Comment 2 Shriramana Sharma 2024-09-04 09:27:06 UTC
Looks like this should actually be a kdelibs bug then if it's seen in more than just Dolphin. But I am not sure how to reassign there or which component so please look into that too.

(Sorry for the inefficient multiple posts.)
