Bug Description
Binary package hint: usb-creator
I started usb-creator from the Applications menu. Trying to select the .iso I downloaded to my desktop, I pressed "Other". This opened a navigator window with a list of Places on the left hand side.
Selecting Desktop did not show the .iso I downloaded.
The Desktop entry pointed to /root/Desktop, instead of /home/albert/
Also, the root home directory was shown, instead of my personal home directory.
Navigating through "File System" allowed me to find the right .iso.
$ apt-cache policy usb-creator
