            Bug ID: 493950
           Summary: If you tag a file with a tag of the "wrong case",
                    Dolphin gets confused.
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Neon
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

SUMMARY
    If you tag a file with a tag of the "wrong case", Dolphin gets confused.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 
1...
    Make sure you have content indexing enabled and you are indexing your test
directory

2...
    Create a test file and assign a tag "mytag":

        $ echo "Hello Penguin" > testfile.txt
        $ setfattr -n "user.xdg.tags" -v "mytag" testfile.txt  

3... 
    Check to see Baloo has indexed it and the "mytag" folder appears in Places
Panel,
    Tags section and in the "All Tags" folder

4...
    In Dolphin, find the file and add a tag "MyTag" through the "Assign Tags"
context
    menu (don't use the "Edit..." in the F11 Information Panel, you will hit
Bug 493862)

    See what's happened...

OBSERVED RESULT:
    You will see both mytag and MyTag in the "assign Tags" dropdown list and
both listed
    in the F11 information panel. The tag handling here seems to be case
sensitive.

    However, you will see only the second tag, "MyTag" appear in the Places
Panel, Tags
    section and in the "All Tags" folder. The earlier "mytag" disappears. The
tag
    handling here seems to be case insensitive but Dolphin seems to show the
"last
    used" tag.

EXPECTED RESULT:
    Baloo generally ignores case when indexing and searching. It does however
index tags
    in mixed case. Somebody was doing the right thing :-)

    If you have used the "wrong case" when applying a tag, *both* tags should
appear in
    the Places, Tags section and in the "All Tags" folder view

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS:
    Neon Unstable 
    Dolphin: 24.11.70
    Plasma: 6.1.90
    Frameworks: 6.7.0
    Qt: 6.7.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    Command line searches "baloosearch6 tags:mytag", "baloosearch6 tags:MyTag",
    "baloosearch6 tags:mYtAG" seemingly do case insensitive searches.
