------- Bug moved to this database by unknown@bugzilla.gnome.org 2002-04-20 11:33 -------

Unknown version 1.1.x in product nautilus. Setting version to the default, "unspecified".
Reassigning to the default owner of the component, nautilus-maint@bugzilla.gnome.org.

Comment 1 Luis Villa 2002-04-20 21:03:26 UTC

Andersca thinks this is a gnome-vfs bug; reassigning.

Comment 2 Luis Villa 2002-05-01 12:48:09 UTC

Probably part of bug 72715.

Comment 3 Dave Bordoley [Not Reading Bug Mail] 2002-05-01 14:17:38 UTC

How are you draggin anything to favorites? The favorites URI is broken
if i recall correctly. Are you dragging it to the favorites icon in
start-here?

Comment 4 Luis Villa 2002-05-21 05:26:57 UTC

Favorites works just fine :) And dragging from applications to
favorites: [favorites: is the URL displayed in the location bar] still
crashes a build from this morning. Trace is different now, though:

Comment 5 Dave Bordoley [Not Reading Bug Mail] 2002-05-21 07:37:45 UTC

just for the record i did a completely clean install of redhat 7.3
without gnome 1.4 and used redcarpet to install gnome2 (obviously no
prior gnome install is present) and favorites directory doesn't work
at all. I'm really not imagining this...

Comment 6 Alex Graveley 2002-05-24 10:15:18 UTC

seems fixed in CVS, please verify though.
