Remote locations should show in filechooser

[markba]

Binary package hint: cheese

When I do a file operation (Open, etc.), I can see no bookmark entries ('Places') for remote locations (FTP, SMP, etc.) in the file dialog. Also, the (gvfs-) connected servers are also not shown on the left in this dialog.

This problems happens with a lot of applications, so maybe it's better to solve this in the GNOME-framework, by showing the Places entries by default.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

[Expired for cheese (Ubuntu) because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

It is the save as-screen which you can reach by right clicking on a taken image (below the main window). See screenshot

Thank you for reporting this bug. I'm marking it as triaged since there's enough information for a developer to fix this bug. This bug needs to be fixed in Cheese itself, not in Ubuntu.

As far as the other issue where the default should be to show remote bookmarks instead of requiring developers to opt in, see bug 805138.
