escape metafilenames with %F, not %f (378 bytes, patch)

Description Rached Ben Mustapha 2008-01-23 17:56:25 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
With Nautilus 2.21 directories are show as if no metadata were stored for them, ignoring any customization. This is because slashes for metafiles filenames are now escaped as %2f instead of %2F as before.

Steps to reproduce:



Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

-> GIO
Comment 3 Christian Kirbach 2008-01-27 13:05:06 UTC 
Note: this leads to a loss of all nautilus costomisations when upgrading to 2.21, like stretched icons and custom thumbnails.

Icons are back some of them very huge ...
Also I lost forever the button for icons selection on the Properties windows, when I copy / paste a folder or a file - they try to overwrite originals - SO THEY ARE NOT RENAMES AS IN THE PAST, some mime types are lost for Nautilus also some associations  (a link to HTDOCS are now open with Text Editor ( Scite on my Ubuntu )), also stretching icons action work only for folders with current theme icons NOT with older customized icons (from other paths).

So only a few things go back to the old states - not all.
