            Bug ID: 420637
           Summary: allow using apps other than kompare for diff
                    functionality
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.04.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Dolphin has a diff toolbar button available but it works only with kompare. I
prefer using Meld, some other people might prefer some other tools. Provide
some selection mechanism, or fallback to a list of known comparison tools if
kompare is not installed.

Currently I'm using a dolphin with this patch:

but a more general solution would probably be required.
