Dragging an app link .desktop file from Folder View showing desktop:/
from Folder View (but not Dolphin) to desktop/panel, spawning an Icon,
was broken because:
- KDirModel::metaData adds the UDS_LOCAL_PATH (local file) url as
text/uri-list to the drag MIME data, but also the original desktop:/
URL as a second special MIME format for KDE URLs, using KUrlMimeData
- Dolphin only does the first part, using a partial code copy from
KDirModel
- ContainmentInterface::processMimeData uses KUrlMimeData with default
options to decode the drag MIME data - the default option is
PreferKdeURLs, so it retrieves the desktop:/ URL from the FV drag
but not the Dolphin drag (since it lacks it)
- Thus the Icon applet is handed a desktop:/ URL in the FV case, which
the code - not using KIO - isn't written to handle
This patch adds an async KIO::StatJob to the Icon code when
QURL::isLocalFile is fast to try and resolve an URL to a more local
one the rest of the code can handle.
Rewriting more of the Icon code to use KIO /would/ have been nice,
however it ultimately ends up using KDesktopFile which can't handle
non-local files, so at some point resolving to the proxied-for path
would happen anyway.
