Comment 2 for bug 1003820

Thank you for your bug report, do you use unity3d or 2d?

I tried here with a french local doing:
- right click on the desktop (nautilus)
- create a folder "tést"
- go to that folder, right click, create an empty document "debugging"
- double click on it (open in gedit)
- close gedit
- open the dash
- type "debu"
- click on the "debugging" item on the recently used files section

-> gedit opens the debugging file correctly

Do you get the issue with the same steps? (using unity-3d here)
