In my system I have a samba share in my Dolphin places panel. It was created by dragging and dropping a remote folder on the places panel. The entry path looks like this: smb://user@server/path/to/folder I was configuring Dolphin and decided to check what feedback was being sent and I noticed this: "places": { "hasNfsShare": false, "hasSSHFSMount": false, "hasSambaShare": false }, Which seems to be incorrect. Please correct me if I'm wrong. It is important to note that I didn't find the remote folder creator assistant from the network folder I used to use in the past so I didn't use it to create the samba share shortcut. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Check Dolphin's user feedback raw data OBSERVED RESULT This data is sent > "hasSambaShare": false EXPECTED RESULT This data should be sent > "hasSambaShare": true SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Debian Bullseye/testing KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.81.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2
Mmmm. Will be a Dolphin-specific issue.
Well in fact smb://user@server/path/to/folder is not a samba share in the sense dolphin expects it here. It is not a fs mounted cifs filesystem and that what `hasSambaShare` means currently. smb:// is a kio-extras io-slave that is a lot easier to handle than cifs mounts, that why the two kinds of samba share access are differentiated in the feedback.

Is that actually what we want to measure though?
