Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-utils

Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10
gnom-utils 2.20.0.1-0ubuntu1

I use the "Ordner durchsuchen" (think Folder search in en) to search for "Andere" (think other in en).

When the Option "Verborgene Datein anzeigen" (think Show hiddenfiles in en) is on and i turn they off the Files/Folder like .xyz wil not remove from the list. When I turn the Option on I show every File/Folder twice.

I can **not** reproduce this bug in my VirtualBox VM for Hardy and Gutsy.

So I not now is it a bug or a Problem of my real machine.

A Screencast to document the Bug (recorded with gtk-RecordMyDesktop)

Sorry my English is bad, I hope I understand your question right.

This "bug" comes only in my real gutsy installation. I can't reproduce this "bug" in my virtual gutsy and hardy installations. (see my first message).

But I will try an experiment next time: copy the "."-Files from my real home-directory to my virtual gutsy and hardy installations and see what happen.

Is there other directories with configurations files that can be the cause for this "bug"?

do you plan to update this box to hardy? copying the configuration would be a good way to determine if the issue is due to it

I think I have found the cause of the problem.

I have create a new user on my real gutsy machine. The new user have not the problem.

I have search for the file that store the status of the windows that make the problem. I have found the file "~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini".

When I copy my file to the new user the new user have the same problem.

The content of the file ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini
==========================================

[Filechooser Settings]
LocationMode=filename-entry
ShowHidden=false
ExpandFolders=true

==========================================

I can now reproduce the same problem in my VirtualBox gutsy VM but I can **not** reproduce it in my hardy VM.

PS: The content of the original ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini
==========================================

[Filechooser Settings]
LocationMode=path-bar
ShowHidden=false
ExpandFolders=false

==========================================
