Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

When you view a location, in the "Missing Files" or "Import Error" section, it shows file locations as "/folder/folder/fold...". Since all the files are in the same folders, the location field is now useless.

It should show the beginning and end of the path instead: "/folder/fold...lder/filename"

Also it should be possible to view the entire path in a scrolling tooltip or something.

Thank you for your bug report. That's a minor detail that should be taken upstream by somebody from the bugsquad

Is this still an issue in 12.04 or 12.10?
