can not access non-listed (hidden) ftp directory

[Tormod Volden]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I have an URL of the form: ftp://user@server/outgoing/subfolder/
I can use the URL in Firefox and it works fine.

However nautilus fails with:
 Couldn't find "ftp://user@server/outgoing/subfolder/"
 Please check the spelling and try again.

The outgoing directory does not lists it contents, which might trigger this regression, but I am not sure. I can browse the root and see the seemingly empty incoming folder but typing in the full URL doesn't help.

Same with Intrepid and nautilus 1:2.23.6.1-0ubuntu1 and gvfs-backends 0.99.4-0ubuntu1.

Note that this is not a duplicate of bug #217975, where "hidden" means dot files. In my case the "outgoing" directory likely has execute but not read permissions.

thank you for your bug report, likely an upstream issue, could you report it on bugzilla.gnome.org where the people writting the software will read it?

thank you for sending it to GNOME
