Hi,

1. Is it true that KDirLister doesn't emit the completed() signal if I specify 
an empty (but existing) url in the openURL() method? 

2. In the NetAccess (or maybe the KIO::stat) sources there is an error, as the 
exists function does not work correctly if the specified url is not a file, 
but a directory. In this case it always returns true. I don't send a patch as 
my KDE HEAD checkout is old (aug 7) (I'm using 3.0.x now.), but here is what 
corrects the behaviour:

Original method:
bool NetAccess::exists( const KURL & url )
{
  if ( url.isLocalFile() )
    return QFile::exists( url.path() );
  NetAccess kioNet;
  return kioNet.statInternal( url );
}


Patched method:
bool NetAccess::exists( const KURL & a_url )
{
 if ( a_url.isLocalFile() )
 {
    return QFile::exists( a_url.path() );
 } else
 {
  KURL url = a_url;
  if (a_url.path().endsWith("/")) url.setPath(a_url.path()+"dummy_file");
  NetAccess kioNet;
  return kioNet.statInternal( url );
 }
}

Andras
