Kde 4.6.1, 4.6.2 widget-folderview, rename a file gives an error.

I already submitted the issue on bugs.kde.org:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=270414

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2)
OS:                Linux

When i rename a file using folderview, the file is renamed, but an error is
triggered.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
-place a folderview widget on the desktop
-rename a file from 'oldname' to 'newname'

Actual Results: 
- see the error message: "The file or folder oldname does not exist."
- see that the file has been renamed to 'newname'

Expected Results: 
Don't throw an unuseful error message, it is clear that 'oldname' does not
exists anymore.

...but it seems that at least someone can't reproduce it on kubuntu packages

I cannot reproduce the error. Using KDE 4.6.2, 64bit, Kubuntu packages.

Can somebody try to reproduce under arch please?

Thank you very much!

Re: Kde 4.6.1, 4.6.2 widget-folderview, rename a file gives an error.

I can reproduce this error.

I tried renaming a file in the folder view, and renaming a file in a sub-folder off of the folder view.

In all cases, I got the "does not exist" error, and the re-named file.

Arch: 64-bit
KDE: 4.6.2

I wrote something into that bug, maybe its related to 218180 on KDEs Bug Tracker

Thanks.
But it remains unclear if this depends on archlinux packages, i don't think so.

really sounds like something upstream, even if some people with other distros dont experience this

I keep having the same issue in two archlinux 64 bit machines. Do we have any update about that?
