Description VITALY Buka 2025-02-06 20:31:57 UTC 
f6aca74944482c1bf5f2df653945a2fb5d2bf660 has strange side effect.
I bisected locally and revert ontop 1.11.5 fix my issue.

Any 1.11.* (on Debian) fail to do from command line:
I didn't try 1.12 because of dependency issues.

`kdiff3 a b c -o d`

Doing the same from UI works fine, but command line invocation always fail with 

"File open error - KDIFF3" dialog
- b
Opening b failed. Unknown error.

1.11.5 is a missing one patch the came in after the switch to 1.12.

The fix is at https://invent.kde.org/sdk/kdiff3/-/commit/09b2adaa9e4dc89d02d6cff1e387408d5c5e2dbe it arrived just ahead the switch to 1.12 branch for releases.

It should apply cleanly to 1.11.5.
