GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 361520
Passing uris instead of filenames to gnome-obex-send
Last modified: 2007-03-06 01:23:55 UTC
As seen in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=210253 nautilus-sendto passwes uris to gnome-obex-send, but that expects to get filenames.
(adding more details - I didn't find this immediately in a bugzilla search) Manifests itself as: 1) right click on file, Send To..., bluetooth device 2) remote bluetooth device appears to accept connection, but then "looses connection" 3) nautilus-sendto reports "Error (gnome-obex-send) Unable to read the file 'file://<filename>' Using 'gnome-obex-send -d <btaddr> <filename>' on the commandline works fine. This unfortunately cripples sending files from nautilus via bluetooth.
hi can you confirm bug 372454 fixes the problem
Closing. You need gnome-bluetooth 0.8 for this to work, poke your distribution to get an updated version.
