Description Al Dunsmuir 2016-07-15 18:19:25 UTC
Description of problem:
In Gnome/Places file display (nautilus), the destination folder does
not display current file tree if Search is active.  May be incorrectly
trying to apply search to initial path (current directory) for destinatio
folder.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
System is X86_64 F24, upgraded from F23 with all updates applied.


How reproducible:
100%.  Verified is failing on multiple F24 installations.


Steps to Reproduce:
- Use Gnome Places to display directory with files.
- Use ^F (Search) to display a subset of the files.
- For one of these files, select "Copy To" and press enter
  The "Select Copy Destination" panel is displayed.


Actual results:
- Displays error pop-up 
        The folder contents could not be displayed
          The specified location is not supported 

Expected results:
- Show folder tree allowing selection of the copy destination

Additional info:
Same thing happens with "Move To".

Since it does not happen without search, I would speculate that the filter
is incorrectly being used against the current directory path which is the
initial location for the destination selection. 

It's inconventient not to be able to use Search to display a subset of the
files but at least it is not happening 100% of the time!

Comment 2 Al Dunsmuir 2017-05-25 12:34:51 UTC
Opened Gnome BZ https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=783090 to ensure upstream fixes this issue. Pretty basic functionality for my workflow.

Comment 3 Al Dunsmuir 2017-05-31 18:00:58 UTC
"Extract To" is similarly affected.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 21:49:34 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 15:38:06 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 6 Al Dunsmuir 2017-08-08 20:09:41 UTC
The problem is significantly better on F26.

As far as I can see, all instances of Copy-to and Move-to have been corrected.

There is still one residual Extract-to that is broken, but the menu where this is triggered is rather hidden.  I will append more details on reproducing once have a scenario.

Comment 7 Al Dunsmuir 2017-08-08 20:14:46 UTC
Updated Summary to reflect new reality
