Description kyklops 2016-09-18 17:02:57 UTC 
Folders ending with a space in their name are not retrieved from Folder View

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a folder on your Folder View or Desktop.
2. Rename it including a space as the ending character, e.g. "Test ".
3. Try to open it, e.g. click on it.

Actual Results:  
Dolphin (or any file manager) doesn't open the folder, because it is looking for the folder *without* the ending space in its name.

Expected Results:  
Dolphin opens the folder.

I think this may be a bug in KRun. The QUrl that I hand to KRun includes the space (but no trailing slash), and is then passed the following way:

new KRun(url, 0);

David?

Bug in QUrl, actually.

    qDebug() << "in:" << urlArg;
    QUrl url = QUrl::fromUserInput(urlArg, QDir::currentPath());
    qDebug() << "out:" << url;

in: "/home/dfaure/bugs/trailing space "
out: QUrl("file:///home/dfaure/bugs/trailing space")

I'll keep digging and I'll fix it in Qt.

The fix is in (for Qt 5.8.1 if there's one, otherwise 5.9)
