Bug 28098

Thanks for the report, but it needs some clarification:
Please always say in a bug report for a known package its version:
 $ rpm -q <packagename>
I have presumed the latest.

Please post the output from:
 $  inxi -Dp
and one of EITHER:
 # fdisk -l /dev/sda
OR, if the disc is GPT:
 # gdisk -l /dev/sda
 
Please describe the exact manipulations in Dolphin to show the fault; every single click along the way. And what you mean by "calculation button".

I cannot get it to show '/' for the root partition. Indeed, to open that partition, I had to use the command line with the partition ID. Then it just shows a blank window, Properties for which show 0 bytes. No sign of 'calculate'.

Dolphin partition Properties/General display showing nonsense calculated size

Thanks for the disc details.
I at last have found where you are, am with you:
> go to sda1 racine (/)
Right-click the root partition entry in the 'Devices' section of the LH pane.
> calculate button
In the Properties window 'General' pane, under 'Size' is a button which shows 'Renew' or 'Calculate' (if size blank).

I got a similar sort of result to you:
128.0 TiB (140,775,196,432,497)        *****
700,181 files, 80,806 sub-folders

Screenshot attached.
