Description of problem: When you right click in nautilus (eg from Desktop) and select Search for files..., gnome-search-tool starts with an error: "Error starting file '/home/user/Desktop/'/home/user/Desktop":No such file or directory" After clicking OK you can do a search Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nautilus-search-tool-0.2.2-3.fc9.i386 How reproducible: Alwaya Steps to Reproduce: 1.Right click in a folder 2.Select Search for Files.... 3. Actual results: The error above (with the path from where is was started) Expected results: No error Additional info: Probably the path passed to gnome-search-tool from nautilus is passed twice or something like that.
The double-path message is a bug in gnome-search-tool's error dialog. The actual bug is that nautilus-search-tool is needlessly shell-quoting things that aren't passed to the shell. I'll attach a patch that fixes this.
