           Summary: Okular stops displaying the document when clicked on
                    section in contents pane refering to not existing
                    file.
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.11.2
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: okular-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: jakub.kuzniar at gmail.com


Version:           0.11.2
OS:                Linux

Sometimes I open specific pdf files, with content information (sections,
subsections) which are links to other pdf files. Whenever the link cannot be
resolved by okular, the message window is displayed with error and information
that file cannot be found. The problem is the behaviour of the program which in
case of such error, closes already opened document and leaves empty window. I
cannot move back. So the easiest way is to close the program and reopen
document one more time. When I have a lot of such files, it is annoying to
reopen okular whenever I click on wrong section. Also I don't know how to
recognize sections pointing to not existing files. So my propose is to simple
do file exists check after the user clicks on section pointing to other file
and before closing already opened document.

Thank you for your work.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find pdf file witch sections pointing to other files (some of scientific
journals, knovel.com) 
2. Open pdf file
3. Click on sections in contents pane until you find section pointing to not
existing file.
