dragging files into other apps like konsole seems normally.

Restarting dolphin fixes the problem and it works one time again (so it could be that the problem is also dolpin related)
Comment 2 Jim Jones 2022-12-29 12:48:19 UTC 
Better way to reproduce, show the bug:

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. drag multiple files (A) from gwenview into a folder in dolphin (it works)
2. drag file (B) from gwenview into a folder in dolphin (it tries to copy/overwrite the files (A) selected in step (1.) again, although only one file (B) is dragged)
Comment 3 wbqq 2022-12-29 21:16:20 UTC 
can confirm this bug exists on
garuda 5.26.4 / 5.102.0 / 5.15.7 / apps 22.08
gentoo 5.26.4 / 5.100.0 / 5.15.7 / apps 22.12
but does not appear on void linux 5.26.3 / 5.101.0 / 5.15.7 / apps 22.08.2

whats really interesting is that it only works with gwenview+dolphin. gwenview+pcmanfm as well as dolphin+firefox work just fine
would really like to know any workaround (even the evil ones) because i rebuilt the whole system and deleted all the configs but still havent solved this bug
Comment 4 wbqq 2022-12-29 22:59:42 UTC 
downgrading to plasma 5.26.2 / frameworks 5.99.0 / apps 22.08.2 didnt help. the problem might be in qt, not plasma
Comment 5 Jim Jones 2022-12-30 02:42:21 UTC 
the bug also happens when copying files between two gwenview windows.
Comment 6 wbqq 2022-12-31 16:58:47 UTC 
can be solved by downgrading gwenview to 21.12.3. yes, not even 22.08
i also downgraded qt to 5.15 just in case but i dont think it's necessary
Comment 7 Marcin Gryszkalis 2023-01-11 08:14:47 UTC 
I can confirm problem on Arch, with gewnview 22.12.1-1
Comment 8 Marcin Gryszkalis 2023-01-14 00:57:03 UTC 
I found commit responsible for this bug: https://invent.kde.org/graphics/gwenview/-/commit/b6e8d6a9786937602e76d3ed26ca2ba4043b2336

gwenview compiled from current master with this patch reversed works properly.

Harald @sitter is the author.
Comment 9 Jim Jones 2023-01-18 12:18:46 UTC 
reverting the commit b6e8d6a9786937602e76d3ed26ca2ba4043b2336 fixes the bug for me too
Comment 10 wbqq 2023-01-18 16:50:14 UTC 
i would like those who can confirm this bug to also try drag-n-drop images from notifications to dolphin, for example with `spectacle -fb`
it also seems broken for me and it might be somehow related to this bug
Comment 11 Mihai Sorin Dobrescu 2023-01-18 19:26:52 UTC 
I confirm it exists on a Gentoo based distro.
