I can confirm that there must be a bug in alacarte also or still in Ubuntu 9.10. But I think it is not a problem of renaming things, but the dialogue does not choose a folder or a file - the dialogue asks for a folder to create. Seems to be a wrong type of dialogue?

1. e.g the icon /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/apps/kde.png exists and is our candidate
2. start alacarte - choose properties for an entry
3. click "browse icons" - then click button "browse"
4. copy the path /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/apps/ (not the icon name - just the path)
5. Now nothing is displayed
6. type now something in the path e.g. "whatHappensNow"
7. press button "Open" ==> Messagebox "The folder could not be created" (here: happily no write permission in this folder)

Entering the full path/filename + "open" works, but this is not very user-friendly.

I hope that this helps. Regards, Thorsten
