Bug Description
Binary package hint: pdfshuffler
If one goes to import a PDF file, the dialogue lists only the files that happen to end in ".pdf", regardless of whether:
1) those files really are PDF files
2) there are other PDF files in the directory that do not end in ".pdf".
The second bug is particularly a problem. It means that one cannot open some PDFs unless one happens to remember their name exactly. (I list the first bug simply for completeness as something that should be fixed; it doesn't actually affect my workflow.)
For example, I have a file "CO 106" which is a PDF file. The OS recognizes it as such (if I type 'file "CO 106"' the OS correctly informs me that it is a PDF 1.4 file). But PDF-Shuffler does not list it in the dialogue box when I try to import the file.
