Pass directories directly instead of the non-unique text ID (2.24 KB, application/octet-stream)

Description Josselin Mouette 2010-02-27 12:20:01 UTC 
Created attachment 154824 [details]
Pass directories directly instead of the non-unique text ID

When there are several directories with the same name, adding a new item in one of them can make it appear in another one.

The reason is that the name is passed using the text ID, which is not guaranteed to be unique. Passing the gmenu.Directory instead works.

Is this still a bug with alacarte master? I've rewritten this code.
