Description of problem: The gnome-screenshot program is not handling "Save in folder" properly, which results in screenshots saved in another folder. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-utils-2.20.0.1-2.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create some directories to save files in (mkdir -p ~/Desktop/images) 2. Press Alt+PrtSc or start gnome-screenshot to make a screenshot 3. Use the "Save in folder" dialog to navigate to the directory where you want to save the file 4. IMPORTANT: In the dialog select the directory (images) with the mouse and click the "Open" button. 5. The name of the directory is reflected in the GUI /Save in folder field 6. Click "Save". The image is saved in the parent directory (~/Desktop in this case) Actual results: The image is saved in the parent directory of what is selected. Expected results: The image is saved in the selected directory. Additional info: To actually save the image in the desired directory replace step #4 with: 4. In the dialog select the directory (images) with the mouse and double click on it. You are now inside the directory (showing that it's empty). Click the "Open" button. Although the GUI is reflecting the current selection IMO the internal data structures are not updated to reflect the new save location. Most probably the error is that this location is the current directory when clicking "Open" which does not reflect the selection with the mouse.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. 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 prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
