Description Stéphane Genaud 2004-08-06 12:21:47 UTC 
Description of Problem:


Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. create a directory and put a file in it
2. change the perms of the directory to 644 (e.g.
dr-wr--r--, no execute means no traversal)

3. Browse the contents of the directory. Nautilus
allows to browse the contents of the directory and
shows the generic gnome icon for each file along
with the filename (Konqueror cuts the problem
refusing access). Left click on any of these file.


Actual Results:
The file icon disappears. 

Expected Results:
A "Permission denied" message and a steady file icon. 


How often does this happen? 
Always.

Additional Information:
Nautilus 2.6.3

Comment 5 Martin Wehner 2005-03-03 01:39:17 UTC 
From bug 165306:
Confirmed with 2.9. Causes some other bugs/crashes like bug 165725. Nautilus
should probably refuse to browse it first.
Comment 6 Nickolay V. Shmyrev 2005-03-24 17:21:19 UTC 
The reason for that is that fam 2.7.0 or it's gamin-CVS implementation emit
deleted event on readonly directory. Probably workaround that can be created in
nautilus.
Comment 7 Nickolay V. Shmyrev 2005-03-24 17:26:26 UTC 
Bug 171212 is about gamin behaviour.
Comment 8 Nickolay V. Shmyrev 2005-03-24 20:14:21 UTC 
Sorry, I was wrong about fam behaviour, fam 2.7 works nice, that is only gamin bug.

Bug 171212 contains patch that should fix the problem, so let me close this as
duplicate.
