Description Baptiste Mille-Mathias 2006-08-24 22:02:36 UTC 
Gthumb produces an error when trying to open a folder with the file selector.

1. on the sidebar, select "other..."
2. select the folder to open (for me "/share/Photos/Anniv Célia (2003)")

Result 
This error message appears:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Impossible to load folder "file:///share/Photos/Anniv%20C%C3%A9lia%20(2003)" : File not found.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

it seems gthumb wait for a path, and it receive an URI.

Confirmed here on FC5 with the gthumb-2.7.7-1 rpm.

The accented character is causing the problem.

The gnome file browser that the "other..." option calls seems to return a string that needs to be escaped/unescaped by gthumb.

Browsing through the sidebar directly works OK, though.

Might be related to bug #352395.
Comment 3 Michael Chudobiak 2006-08-31 18:46:34 UTC 
Confirming bug, but reducing severity to "normal", because the workaround is trivial. Just browse using the "Filesystem" sidebar entry.
Comment 4 Paolo Bacchilega 2006-08-31 19:30:14 UTC 
fixed now in current CVS, thanks.
