            Bug ID: 454883
           Summary: In fish portocol, directories with names that end in
                    .d cannot be descended into.
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 21.12.1
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY
Today I attempted to adjust a webserver configuration using dolphin to connect
to fish://root@server/etc.  Connection worked as usual and I found I was
looking at a listing of the /etc directory.  All good and expected.

Then I clicked on httpd which switched to listing the /etc/httpd directory.  I
then clicked on conf.d and got this message at the top of dolphin:

"The file fish://server/etc/httpd/conf.d could not be loaded, as it was not
possible to read from it.
Check if you have read access to this file."

And in a pop up dialog I saw this:

"Could not read file fish://server/etc/httpd/conf.d."

On closer inspection I saw that there was no > next to the directory conf.d,
which usually means it is not a directory, but the permissions showed
drwxr-xr-w. 

So I logged into that server via ssh and was able to enter /etc/httpd/conf.d
without a problem, and from there edit or view any of the apache config files.

Then I tried renaming the conf.d directory to conf_d from the dolphin fish
connection.  Then I was able click on conf_d to descend into that directory and
edit any of the apache config files there.

I tried renaming the directory to conf.d and after that was able to descend
into that directory from that dolphin session.  Closing dolphin, opening it
again and connectin to that server via fish again, I was again not able to get
into the/etc/httpd/conf.d directory.

Turns out this happens no matter which server I connect, some of which are
Rocky Linux, most are CentOS Stream 8, and two are CentOS 7.  All do the same. 
That is, any directory named *.d cannot be decended into via fish on dolpin.

I just upgraded to Fedora 36, and this was not a problem before the upgrade.  I
use dolphin multiple times a day to connect to the servers I manage, and this
is the first time I saw this.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to remote machine via fish
2. navigate to /etc/httpd
3. click on conf.d

OBSERVED RESULT
Error message and pop up as described above

EXPECTED RESULT
Descent into conf.d directory

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Fedora: 36
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I did not see this until updated to Fedora 36

This seem to be related to bug 171473, except is is very old.
