Bug ID: 491210
Summary: Dolphin does size calculation before asking if it
should override
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.05.2
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org

A script to make the bug better reproduceable
SUMMARY
I re encoded my Movie collection to make some space on my external hard drive.
The re encoded Videos were on another drive. So I ended upon with the
following:
- The Directory with the original Video files on my external drive. Size: 400GB
- The Directory with the re encoded files on another drive (same filenames).
Size: 285GB
- 125GB free space on my external drive
But when I wanted to copy the re encoded files to my external drive, Dolphin
refuses to copy the files, because it doesn't have enough space. It didn't ask
me if I want to override the old files.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have Directory A
2. Have Directory B on another Drive
3. Directory B should have files with the exact Names (but smaller) as
Directory A
4. The drive of Directory A should have less free space than the size of
Directory B
5. Copy all files from Directory B to Directory A
To make this easier to reproduce I have attached a little script. Just run the
script and try to copy test.bin from /tmp/bugdemo/b to /tmp/bugdemo/a.
OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin claims there is not enough space.
EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should ask if I want to overwrite the files. As the files in B are
smaller as in A, I should have more free space at the end of the overwriting.
