Don't install an item to the nautilus context menu (5.26 KB, patch)

Description William Jon McCann 2012-05-21 18:31:52 UTC 
In jhbuild we install the nautilus extension by default. It seems to add an item to the nautilus content menu and a tab in file properties. I think the file properties dialog is the appropriate place to set file properties, like tags, and we should remove it from the content menu.

Should be an easy fix... though I usually prefer to use the context menu not the properties dialog.

However, In an effort to stream line GNOME and have less clutter, I am all for it. The code is quite obvious in terms of how to disable this...

http://git.gnome.org/browse/tracker/tree/src/plugins/nautilus/tracker-tags-extension.c#n195

It would be easy to disable there setting the iface->get_file_items to NULL or completely remove that area of code.

Thank you for the patch William, go ahead and push to master. It should be in 0.14.3 soon enough.
