Multiply file renaming do nothing

[Philipp Doorkeeper]

Binary package hint: brasero

creating a new data project in brasero
adding some files
select multiple files and press F2
a dialog appears "File Renaming"

i expect that this dialog change the names of all selected files at once. i expect that this happens only in my project, but not at the file system. but instead nothing happens. the filename keeps the same.

1) when i choose "Renaming mode" "insert text" and enter some text in the insert field and press rename afterwards, the dialog close, but the selected filenames keep the same
2) when i chose one of the other three renaming modes and press rename, another dialog box appears "Do you relly want to replace "filename"? (filename is exactly the filename, not the renamed one) It doesn't matter if i press Keep Project file or Replace Project file, the files are not renamed after i answered all dialogs. the "do you really want to replace" dialog appears for every file i selected. it also makes no difference to put any text in the text fields (like in the field "Delete every occurence of").
There is another strange behavior. when i press Keep Project file in some cases the dialog comes up again with the same question for the same file.

when i select a single file, i can rename it, that works fine.

i would love to have the a feature that put a sequence of numbers at the beginning of the filenames. i have three mp3 cd players and they all play the files in alphabetic 8.3 filename order. with this feature, i can rip some audio cds, put them all on a mp3 data cd, put a sequence at the beginning in every dir and the files are exactly played in the same order as on the original audio cd.

as a java pro i am a total newbi to gnome and gtk development, but i fixed the bug, so it works for me. it seems to be a problem with a hidden combo box entry "<Keep current values>" in the rename dialog (brasero-rename.c). this item do not show on my system.

by the way, i implemented my desired feature. a new renaming strategy, that inserts a number sequence at the beginning of each selected file. this ensure that 8.3 and joliet filenames have the same alphabetic order.

i hope my change and fix gets the way into brasero. i will add the changed c file (brasero-rename.c 2.26.2) as an attachement.

p.s. i big thanx to the gnome devepolment communtiy. it is so easy to start develop now a days. just install anjuta and some missing dependencies with a package manager. thats it. when i remember the old times, where you have to fight with make and dependency hazle....

This is now fixed in Ubuntu 10.04. Thanks for reporting.
