Description of problem: Gnome 3 File Dialog doesn't remember the last open position. It instead points to a fake, nonsense, and useless virtual folder containing only some of the last used files. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedpora 17, Gnome 3, GTK 3, all updated How reproducible: Always, just open a file, for example for attachment in evolution, try to send it, then try to do the same thing with another file, the file dialog doesn't remember the last position. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attach a file in Evolution 2. Send the mail 3. Try to attach another file, same location as the previous Actual results: File dialog start from a completely random and confusing location Expected results: Remember the last position, like it has always been in the last 15 years, for a good reason. Additional info:
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '17'. 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 17'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 17 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 to Fedora 17's end of life. 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.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
