nautilus won't rename any file - ignores all keyboard input

[Ross Gayler]

Possible regression of Bug #1322925

I have been using nautilus with no problems on this PC (ubuntu 14.10 amd64) since October 2014.
I just succesfully renamed one file with nautilus and went to rename another (copying the first file name from the rename dialog in order to aply it to the second file). The rename dialog box came up with the file name and everything I type from the keyboard is ignored in the dialog box (cut and paste shortcuts and straight text are ignored). The same thing applies to trying to change the file name via the properties dialog.

In the rename dialog, if I rox.ight-click I get a menu with cut, copy, and paste. They actually work on the filename text in the rename dialog b

Every file and folder I have tried to rename gives me the same problem (I am able to rename the same files from the command line with mv).

The following things have NOT fixed the problem:
* Start a new instance of nautilus
* Log out and back
* Reboot the system (<-- This is weird. There must be some state stored somewhere.)
* Re-install nautilus

So until there is a fix this appears to be permanently broken for me.

Everything else in nautilus appears to be OK (as far as I can tell so far).

This is not a regression. It appears to be the same bug as bug #1322925, not yet fixed for Ubuntu 14.10.
