From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en; rv:1.8.1.10) Gecko/20071128 Epiphany/2.20 Firefox/2.0.0.10 Description of problem: If I have a directory listed in Wallpaper Tray that doesn't exist, and I try to change my wallpaper, Wallpaper Tray crashes. The panel asks whether I would like to reload. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.5.3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. add a directory to the Directory List (it creates it if it doesn't already exist) 2. remove the directory from the file system 3. try to change wallpaper Actual Results: Wallpaper Tray crashes and the panel asks if it should reload it. Expected Results: Wallpaper Tray should not crash. Perhaps it should indicate to the user that one of the listed directories does not exist (ideally through libnotify and not a pop-up :|). Additional info: This is bad when a user rearranges part of their directory structure and has Wallpaper Tray set to automatically change wallpapers. It can confuse them, wondering why this applet crashes all the time.
