Bug ID: 379450
Summary: drag and drop a URL from a browser fails to create a
shortcut with the right URL
Product: dolphin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: damien....@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Using Kubuntu 16.04, Plasma 5.8.5.
When I drag and drop a URL from a web browser location bar (I tried Firefox and
Chromium), after choosing to get a link, instead of getting a .desktop file
with a link, Plasma (which module?) tries to create a .desktop to a different
URL, full of %00 and using the title of the window. Usually that fails, but
sometimes it does create the file.
For instance, for the URL https://bugs.kde.org/, I get the following .desktop
file:
[Desktop Entry]
Icon=unknown
Name=%00K%00D%00E%00 %00B%00u%00g%00t%00r%00a%00c%00k%00i%00n%00g%00
%00S%00y%00s%00t%00e%00m%00 %00M%00a%00i%00n%00 %00P%00a%00g%00e
Type=Link
URL[$e]=%00K%00D%00E%00 %00B%00u%00g%00t%00r%00a%00c%00k%00i%00n%00g%00
%00S%00y%00s%00t%00e%00m%00 %00M%00a%00i%00n%00 %00P%00a%00g%00e
My guess is that the bug is not caused by dolphin, but I do not know what is
causing it.
