            Bug ID: 433803
           Summary: Nonsensical error message when attempting to paste to
                    desktop after deleting unrelated file
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.12.2
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: php4fan at gmail.com
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a folder in Dolphin. From that folder, select a file or folder and
prepare for copying by pressing Ctrl+C
2. Show desktop (Super+Shift+D on OpenSUSE). In the desktop, select a file by
clicking on it
3. Delete the file from the desktop by pressing Shfit+Del (deletes permanently
without moving to Trash). When prompted, confirm
4. Hit Ctrl+V

OBSERVED RESULT
A nonsensical error message saying "The file or folder <file> does not exist"

where <file> is the name of the file deleted at step 3.

EXPECTED RESULT

Shouldn't show any error message, and should paste the file copied at step 1,
resulting in copying it to the desktop. The fact that the file we deleted
doesn't exist (duh!) is not a reason for not being able to copy a completely
unrelated file, that we selected for copying.


Note that if, at step 3, you hit only Del (without Ctrl), hence moving the file
to the Trash, the issue does not occur.
