Hide Forgot
Created attachment 358117 [details] patch for gtk file chooser Description of problem: The GtkFileChooserDialog does not open the default selected file if the Location field is visible. For example, if the Location field is hidden (as it is by default), and if a directory has 3 files named file1, file2, and file3, and you try to open a file in an application, file1 will be selected by default and you can simply hit Open in the file chooser dialog. If, however, the Location field is showing, then file1 will be highlighted, but clicking Open does nothing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtk2-2.10.4-20.el5 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Backup (if desired) and remove $HOME/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser 2. mkdir /tmp/gtk 3. cd /tmp/gtk 4. touch file1 file2 file3 5. gedit 6. in gedit, hit CTRL-O to open a file 7. note that file1 is selected by default and hit ENTER to open it 8. hit CTRL-W to close file1 9. hit CTRL-O again to open a file 10. hit CTRL-L to open the Location field 11. hit ENTER and nothing happens Actual results: nothing happens: if the Location field is showing, the default selected file does not get opened Expected results: the default selected file should open regardless if the Location field is showing or not Additional info: Attached is a patch from Siddhesh Poyarekar <spoyarek@redhat.com> which was adapted from upstream http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gtk%2B?view=revision&revision=16039

I appears that the patch in bug 523657 is sufficient to fix this problem as well.
It is not. Just that patch results in the following error on console: ** (gedit:1459): CRITICAL **: open_dialog_response_cb: assertion `uris != NULL' failed and the file does not open either.
I've built gtk2-2.10.4-21.el5 with the fix.
