SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
$ kinfo
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20241121
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0
Qt Version: 6.8.0
Kernel Version: 6.11.8-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 24 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i9-12900K

Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050/PCIe/SSE2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If you click ok, the `file open...` dialog appears with the correct file names
and paths, and the diff is successfully opened.

But, this additional step creates problems when diffing from version control
software, e.g.,  mercurial or git On mercurial, it is still possible to see the
diff if there is more than one file changed, but in git it is not possible to
see anything. Even in mercurial, if the diff consists of only one file, it is
also not possible to see any diff.
