           Summary: kompare complains about malformed diffs
           Product: kompare
           Version: 4.0.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: parser
        AssignedTo: kompare-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: admin at eregion.de


Created an attachment (id=51261)
 --> (http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=51261)
a diff that gets parsed only partially, or so kompare says.

Version:           4.0.0 (using KDE 4.5.0) 
OS:                Linux

When I open a diff (made with diff -burNE file1 file2), kompare more often than
not complains about "malformed diff" and tells me that not all lines are shown
in the view.

one such diff is attached.

the same diff parses fine in older versions of kompare.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
reproducibility sometimes = happens with a lot of diffs but not all of them.
reproduce: open the attached diff in kompare.

Actual Results:  
"the diff is malformed. some lines could not be parsed and will not be
displayed in the diff view".

Expected Results:  
I want to see all lines of the diff parsed, or a better explanation as to which
ones were malformed.

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.34-12-pae
Compiler: gcc
