SUMMARY
A few days a bug was reported in the bug tracker of Strawberry player because
it is impossible to restore audio files deleted with it. The Strawberry
developer identified a bug with Dolphin:
"The paths being wrong is a KDE bug, while the character encoding issue is a Qt
bug.
If you look at the trashinfo files in the .Trash-1000/info directory, you can
see that those created by Qt are with absolute paths, but Dolphin incorrectly
handles absolute paths for .trashinfo. Dolphin itself does not use Qt for
moving files to trash, and uses relative paths, which is why it works for files
deleted by Dolphin.
According to the specifications
(https://specifications.freedesktop.org/trash-spec/trashspec-1.0.html), it
should be possible to use both.
You can also see by looking at the trashinfo files that the ones deleted using
Qt is not URL encoded like they should.
I have submitted a fix to Qt for the encoding issue, and also proposed to
change the paths to relative paths when possible:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/450647";
