Cannot open files with name containing #

[Rik Mills]

Bionic: 1.2.2-0ubuntu1
Cosmic: 1.2.3-1

Trying to open a file a google drive file in Dolphin with name containing a # results in an error saying the file (name truncated to whatever proceeds the #) does not exist.

Upstream bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395590
Fixing commit: https://cgit.kde.org/kio-gdrive.git/commit/?h=1.2&id=98eac3003a07a7b785c916950076d7b0d56d6d61
New bugfix release announcement for 1.2.4: https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-announce-apps/2018-July/005457.html

Note: 1.2.3 release simply added a copy of the GPL3 license to the relase tarball, plus some translations.

*** SRU ***

[Impact]

 * Users cannot open gdrive files in Dolphin file manager that contain a #

 * Additionally 1.2.3 and later 1.2.4 contains some correction to appstream data and updated translations.

[Test Case]

 * In Dolphin > Network > Google Drive > Your account, try to open a file created with # in the name.
 * In < 1.2.4 this fails. With 1.2.4 the file opens as normal.
 * Test that Dolphin behaves as normal in other respects.

[Regression Potential]

 * Minimal, but as with any code change other regressions and/or crashes could result. As kio-drive is very targeted in it's functionality, testing its function in Doplhin and checking Dolphin other functions as a file manager should be straight forward.

Fix works as advertised here

[Valorie Zimmerman (valorie-zimmerman)]

Fix works as advertised as well. I created a file called LongNameUsing#inMIDDLEtoTest with some text in it, and copied it back and forth from ~/Documents to Gdrive with no issue. I could easily open in it Gdrive from Dolphin.

Valorie seems to have tested the PPA build there. For the record, both fix the issue for me and my validation was with the -proposed version.

[Łukasz Zemczak (sil2100)]

Thanks for the testing! For the future please remember to always test the packages from -proposed for verification, as we want to know that the exact ones we release to the -updates pocket have been checked by testers.
