SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create file /tmp/essai/thing.pdf containing a link to say
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/okular/okular/okular.pdf
2. Open /tmp/essai/thing.pdf and click link.

OBSERVED RESULT
Okular opens another window of itself, which displays an error about not being
able to open
file:///tmp/essai/https:/docs.kde.org/stable5/en/okular/okular/okular.pdf

(notice only one slash after https:)

EXPECTED RESULT
Okular should open linked PDF file either in the browser or another Okular
window.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Right clicking link and copying address gives the correct URL.
URL to non-PDFs seems unaffected.
Links that do not literally end with .pdf but 302-redirect to a PDF are
affected (see 3rd link in example file).
