Created attachment 158833 [details] screenshot of pressing"Show Target" on the link
i also just noticed that it does not even show the link correctly, it says "Link to" but that does not even contain the real path in "hello?" and the "Show Target" shows as "hello" (no subdirectory), which is in any case incorrect
i dont know if it matters but since creating the issue i could update to frameworks 5.106.0 and dolphin 23.04.1, which still has the same problem i should also note that i did a mistake in step 3 of the reproduction, it is meant to be: 3. mkdir -p "hello?/hello2?" (it was missing the "-p" to create both directories) Operating System: Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0 Qt Version: 5.15.9 Kernel Version: 6.3.5-2-MANJARO (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX Vega Manufacturer: ASUS

i am still having this issue in dolphin 23.08.1 and the following kde versions: Operating System: Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0 Qt Version: 5.15.11 Kernel Version: 6.5.5-1-MANJARO (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX Vega Manufacturer: ASUS
Just tested with Plasma 6.0 Beta 1, thinking maybe it fixes this problem again, but it did not do it (but different) - "bottom link not decoding percent-encoded questionmark": fixed, but now it says "Link to http://hello?/hello2" which is wrong - "opening the file (double click)": works - "Show Target from context menu not opening": still says the same as in the screenshot (https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=158833) - "Points to link opening": also still says the same (as "Show Target from context menu not opening") Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.90.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.246.0 Qt Version: 6.6.0 Kernel Version: 6.2.0-37-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor Memory: 3,8 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: llvmpipe Manufacturer: QEMU Product Name: Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009) System Version: pc-q35-8.1 dolphin --version: dolphin 24.01.80
Update with dolphin `24.04.70` and plasma `6.0.80`: the issues are still the same as the first time with plasma 6 full about: Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.249.0 Qt Version: 6.6.1 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-14-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor Memory: 3,8 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: llvmpipe Manufacturer: QEMU Product Name: Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009) System Version: pc-q35-8.1 PS: the issues also still exist within plasma 5 (dolphin `23.08.4` & plasma `5.27.10`)
On my system, some of the behavior working OK now, but "Show target" still exhibits the error. I followed the setup in the original message. 1. In Dolphin, I opened the folder "test" 2. Clicked on "hello2?" and observed that "Link to file" in the bottom did not show "%3F" - BUT it incorrectly showed "Link to ~/Downloads/test/hello" (leaving off the ? at the end) 3. Right clicked on "hello2?" -> "Show target", saw an error "The file or folder /home/tracey/Downloads/test/hello does not exist." 4. In properties of hello2? the "Points to" field correctly shows hello?/hello2 BUT clicking on the arrow button results in the same error as the last step
