Saving file to directory - not Desktop

[KevinM]

Running Ubuntu 7.10 x64 on AMD2 PC.
Open either Swiftweasel 2.0.0.11 or Firefox 2.0.0.13 and try to download a file by right clicking on the link and then select 'Save link as'. Now select a directory other than Desktop and click on 'Save'. Download manager displays a message 'All files downloaded to: Desktop'. This is incorrect as destination should be the directory selected.

Hello KevinM,

I agree this may be a little confusing, but "All files downloaded to: <location>" message should point to the default download location. I'll look if this was discussed upstream or maybe here.

Thank you for the report.

This requires a backport of the xdg user dir support patch available on
trunk.

not an issue on ffox 3 and beyond. They dont say which location the file was saved to at all anymore.
