[Qgis-developer] Drag & Drop fails on Geopackage

[Matthias Kuhn]

Hi

It's often hard to say who broke what with which change. By the time you know (if do knw at all...), the one who introduced the problem may not be available.
It's a lot easier to enforce this pre-merge but that normally only happens if either the broken functionality is unit tested or someone volunteers to test the pull request in-depth.

Cheers Matthias
