Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: dolphin
Description:
When hovering the mouse over a FIFO, dolphin stops responding until I kill it
manually.
Steps to reproduce:
1) mkfifo THEFIFO
2) open Dolphin
3) hover mouse over THEFIFO
What I expected to happen:
Dolphin shows some basic information about the FIFO.
What happened instead:
Dolphin stops responding.
My Guess:
It looks like Dolphin tries to open(2) the FIFO with O_RDONLY, which blocks
(see strace snippet).
