Error accessint to non-existant Downloads folder
Last modified: 2006-07-23 12:46:13 UTC
Please describe the problem: When you open Epiphany preferences dialog when there is no ~/Desktop/Downloads folder, an error alert appears. Steps to reproduce: 1. Delete or Remove your Downloads folder (create a new, fresh user could be better) 2. Open Epiphany 3. Select Edit->Preferences Actual results: An error alert appears, saying: <big>The folder content could not be displayed</b> error accessing 'file://home/betatester/Desktop/Downloads': file not found Expected results: No error message if Desktop/Download folder don't exist. Does this happen every time? Yes Other information: I'm not sure it's an Epiphany bug * it could be a GTK+ FileChooserButton bug (I didn't search) * it could be related to recent gnome-vfs-daemon activation via DBUS: I'm using a jhbuild sandbox under /opt/gnome2 and there could be some issues with the system message bus from /usr
Indeed, it's a gtk+ bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 341852 ***
