Description Sense Hofstede 2010-01-28 20:26:07 UTC
When a user has no permissions to read a directory Nautilus places a lock emblem on the directory. However, the same emblem is also used when a user can't write to a directory.
This is confusing. Two different emblems should be used.

This bug was originally reported by ceg on Launchpad in Ubuntu at <https://launchpad.net/bugs/489977>.

Apologises. This turned out to be a bug in the theme of the reporter. Nautilus does already use two different emblems for the two different kind of directories.
