Bug ID: 486784
Summary: Files deleted from search results area remain in the
results but not on disk
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.02.2
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: search
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: fi...@tutanota.com
CC: kfm-de...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The search function in Dolphin seems to operate with an outdated cache if you
delete files from the search area itself.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Search for files within Dolphin
2. Delete all results
3. Edit search such that it should still match the deleted results, i.e. delete
a character from the the search: note that there should not be any results now,
because they have been deleted. For me Dolphin correctly displays no results at
this point.
4. Re-enter the original search i.e. replace the deleted character
OBSERVED RESULT
The original search results are visible when you search again for the original
search string, even though the files no longer exist on disk. Perhaps because
the search results are cached in some way? I can click a deleted text file in
the results and it opens as a new file in Kate, for example. Exiting the search
will not show the deleted files, i.e. Dolphin's normal window is correctly
displaying only the files that really exist. HOWEVER, entering the search area
again and searching for the same thing will show the previously cached results
again! Searches where the search string is a substring of the original search
string will also sometimes show the deleted results i.e. "delete_" might show
results from an original search "delete_me". Pressing F5 seems to force-refresh
the search and it stops displaying deleted files *for that search*, but
substrings of the original search may still return the deleted files until F5
is pressed on those results too.
EXPECTED RESULT
Search results / results cache update to follow file additions / deletions on
disk.
