Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.0) Installed from: RedHat RPMs OS: Linux When I left click on a file and try to modify the owner / group of the corresponding file and enter a nonexistant user / group, the system doesn't give me any errors and rather use "root". I think this is misleading. Better way to handle this issue is to show a dialog to the user telling that no such user / group exists and gives two suggestions, i.e Do you want to modify the owner and group of this file / directory? a) Yes: Forces user to enter another user / group b) No: Resets to default (previous) entry
Moving from "kio/kfile" component to "kfile" product, helps sorting out duplicates.
This bug is not possible any longer in Dolphin given the current UI.
