In gtk 2.24.6 location entry is not initially shown in filechooser
Last modified: 2011-09-08 14:20:25 UTC
In 2.24.5 the filechooser initially shows directory listing and location entry. Iin 2.24.6 the filechooser initially shows recent entries; clicking my home directory in shortcut bar shows listing of the directory and the "Location:" label is shown and the location button is depressed but location entry is not visible. clicking the location button twice first hides the label and then shows the label and the entry. To test: Use a layout with File Chooser button or the Midori browser on a page that allows file upload.
I also get these: Gtk-CRITICAL **:_gtk_file_chooser_entry_set_file_part: assertion `GTK_IS_FILE_CHOOSER_ENTRY (chooser_entry)' failed
This is indeed broken in 2.24.6; I forgot to push a few commits there. The fix will be in 2.24.7. Sorry for the trouble. You may want to grab the commits after 2.24.6 from git.
