Hi - merging this in with the existing report for this issue. Thanks! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 495839 *** |
Created attachment 181663 [details] an irrelevant PDF file SUMMARY The weirdest thing I've seen. When a PDF is opened, starting with '#' in its name, it reliably opens an unrelated image file in the same folder instead. If the image file is removed, it will open the PDF normally. The effect is independent of the image file and the PDF content. You can put any JPEG in the same folder and see. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Rename PDF to something which starts with '#' 2. put an image in the same folder (the name really doesn't matter, not even the file extension). Note: the folder can be totally empty. 3. Open the PDF OBSERVED RESULT The image is shown. The file size is depicted as 0 bytes. EXPECTED RESULT Shows the actual PDF file and correct meta data. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Windows 11 Pro, Build 10.0.26100 Okular Version: 23.08.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.109.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Not tested under Linux. Affects PDF files, but not for example when opening image files.
