When comparing the files existing in two directories and applying diffs the destination files are transformed into directories. This does not happen with kompare 3.4.0 and 3.3.2 compiled from sources in a slackware distro so should not be an upstream bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open Kompare (3.3 from kde 3.3.2) 2.select "compare files.." from file menu 3.select two subdirs with just one slightly different file in them (for semplicity) 4.kompare will show you the diff between them 5. click on one of the arrows to apply/unapply diffs 6. try to save it Actual Results: the modified file is transformed in a directory!!!! Expected Results: patch should have been applied Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/amd64/2005.0, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r1, 2.6.11-gentoo-r7 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-gentoo-r7 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.12 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, May 12 2005, 12:34:35)] distcc 2.18.3 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: [Not Present] sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.9.5, 1.5, 1.8.5-r3, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.4_p6 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.16 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -fweb -ftracers" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -O2 -pipe -fweb -ftracers" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig candy ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LINGUAS="en it" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X a52 aac acpi alsa arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth cdr crypt cscope cups curl dvd dvdr encode esd fam flac font-server foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gpm gtk gtk2 imagemagick imlib jp2 jpeg kde libwww lzw lzw-tiff mad matroska mbox mikmod motif mp3 mpeg ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pcre perl png python qt readline samba sdl spell sqlite ssl tcpd tetex theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb userlocales vorbis xine xml2 xmms xpm xprint xrandr xv xvid zlib linguas_en linguas_it userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
Cannot reproduce, it works fine here.
Please try kompare from kde 3.4.1.
Closing it, it works fine as for version 3.4.1
