unable to copy/paste due to greyed out "paste in that folder"

[dino99]

Precise i386 logged as gnome-classic (without effects)

wanted to copy a subfolder then paste it inside an other subfolder (two different root folders), but i cant use the "paste to that folder" from the menu list because it is greyed.

feedback:

have purged then reinstalled *compiz*
then reconfigured nautilus and log out/in

reopenning nautilus on the next session, the greyed out menu item is gone and i can copy/paste again.
So marking it as fixed.

but copy/paste should work without reinstalling compiz, reconfigur nautilus and log out/in

will it work/be fixed until the final release of 12.04?

melodram, this bug seems to be a duplicate of #882307, which is related to appmenu-gtk, so session logout is required.
Could somebody affected check that this is a duplicate?

Reinstall appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3 indicator-appmenu and log out solve the problem

no it doesn't, reininstalling things on linux doesn't put you in a different situation, that bug just doesn't happen and the time and restarting nautilus or your session will workaorund it

This is a serious downer for Ubuntu 12.04 users. Precise seems to be not so precise after all.
