Bug Description
When using a PeerGuardian Filter File in KTorrent ( enable IP Filter plugin, then Configure > IP Filter ) the filter is downloaded, but still cannot be extracted by KTorrent. An upstream bug report finds the same thing I do: downloading and unzipping the file manually, then pointing KTorrent to the resulting file, will result in success. It appears the error may have been fixed by an updated kdelibs, rather than in KTorrent itself. Nonetheless, it's a regression in KTorrent functionality, as it worked in Quantal.

Hello, with version 4.3.0 this wasn't present. list.iblocklist .com/?list= bt_level1& fileformat= p2p&archiveform at=gz" it successfully downloads the file but does not decompress it.
After upgrading to 4.3.1, when ktorrent tries to download an IP filter file from (for example) the default location "http://
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. KTorrent downloads the IP filter list
2. It "forgets" to decompress (gunzip) it
3. It renames(?) the file to level1.txt but the file is still compressed
Actual Results:
KTorrent shows an error message.
If I manually go to the ~/.kde4/ share/apps/ ktorrent/ and rename the level1.txt file to level1.txt.gz and do `gunzip level1.txt.gz` the file gets decompressed and ktorrent recognizes it as valid file.
I attach a screenshot of the error message and what the level1.txt file looks like before doing my trick said above.
