Cowbell does not import entire folders

[Wouter den Haan]

After installing Cowbell from the repositories on breezy, I wanted to import my entire /music directory. "File -> Open" gives me a window with the title "Import Songs or Directories". In this window, however, when selection a folder and clicking "open", it opens the folder (sounds logical), and does not give an option to really import the entire folder.

Cowbell was designed to tag a single album, not your entire music archive. However, this should be made a little more clear by the use of a splash screen, or a warning if you open more than 20 songs, besides correcting that dialog title. I've opened corresponding issues[1,2] in Cowbell's main bug tracker (trac.more-cowbell.org) -- we'll track the issues there in the future.

I've deleted the bug watches that were created for this bug report as the Cowbell Trac instance appears to have been down for an extended period of time.

This bug was actually fixed in SVN with revision 18. I'm not sure if it's made it into a release yet though.

Sidenote: Cowbell has been tracking issues in gnome bugzilla for a while now and is no longer using Trac.
