Description Alfonso Landin 2001-09-10 01:18:26 UTC
If i have two or more files selected and they are from the same type it can
only be performed the default action for these files when double-clicking. But
right-click->open with is disabled. If these files are from the same type this
should be active (i think). Maybe i want to install several rpms, and i don't
want to install them one by one, taking care or the deps order. If i have two
"apps" assigned to the rpm mime type, one, the default, to show package
information (gnorpm -dp), and other to install/upgrade (gnorpm-auth -U). i want
to be able to select the second one with more than one file, and i dont want it
to be the default action.

Taking bugs previously assigned to Pavel, assigning them to myself. Will parse
them out at my leisure , but many are GnomeVFS bugs we should look at for 2.0

Changing to "old" target milestone for all bugs laying around with no milestone set.

Seeing this in 2.0.x too. Maybe just don't grey out the "Open with..."
menu if the files are of the same type?
Comment 3 John Fleck 2002-11-18 04:11:39 UTC
Still there in 2.1.2
