I have noticed what I think is a bug, probably due to the ScanFolder plugin. After I download a torrent to the folder which ktorrent scans, a dialog pops up asking which files in the torrent I want to download. If I hit accept right away, then everything is fine. However, if I take a little to long (on the order of 30 seconds) I get an error box telling me that the torrent already exists and the trackers will be merged. After accepting, ktorrent crashes.

Oh, and for what it's worth, I have the "Move to "loaded" directory after loading" option enabled. When I get the error message that the torrent is already active etc, the torrent file is not moved.

Version ? I had a quick look at the scanfolder code, and we should deal with this situation.

It's version 2.2.1 (the latest on kubuntu, so really 2.2.1-0ubuntu3~fiesty1).

Just tried it here with the latest code, and it keeps running, no crash. So you need to upgrade to 2.2.2

I finally updated to 2.2.2, and unfortunately, the problem remains. I have noticed that if I uncheck the "move to "loaded" directory after loading" option, the problem goes away -- sometimes. It appears that the problem is gone if there were no torrent files in the folders being scanned when ktorrent was started up. However, if there were torrent files in that folder, and ktorrent is then started up, after a new torrent is added to the folder, the problem is back (i.e., the dialog to select which files to download opens, then a popup saying that the torrent is already being downloaded, then crash).
