I would need a "unsupported file format" for a KIO slave.
As far as I know ERR_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL is the nearest one but probably not
near enough. (A user might not understand what is meant by protocol in this
case.)
So probably a new value should be added to kdelibs/kio/kio/global.*. My
question is how should it be labeled to avoid to have an error message that
has a too narrow use.
I propose ERR_UNSUPORTED_FILE_FORMAT with
"Unsupported file format.\n%1"
The reason I need it is for kdebase/kioslave/tar/tar.cpp . It is needed when
the archive cannot be opened because the header is somehow not supported/
recognized and I need it also for bug #106908 to at least return the error
that the compression type of the ZIP is unsupported.
Have a nice day!
