Description Gergely HORVÁTH 2022-12-22 21:59:40 UTC 
Opening KGet
Starting a download
Let it finish
Remove the a torrent
KGet crashes
KGet does not start, but throws an error, that the torrent file is not found

A graceful crash would be better UX

```sh
$ pacman -Qs kget
local/kget 22.08.3-1 (kde-applications kde-network)
    Download Manager
```
