[Bug 841609] Re: Progress bar overlay not working

 

After some more testing: the progress bar seems to fail whenever the
copy process total file size is >= 2147483648 bytes.


** Description changed:

- I just copied a couple of GiB around and noticed that the progress bar
- on the Nautilus launcher item wasn't working. It looks like the progress
- bar gets painted in the other direction, but that's just a guess (see
- screenshot).
- 
- The progress bar seems to work fine when staying on the root partition.
+ The progress bar seems to fail showing progress whenever the total file
+ size limit of the copy process is larger or equal than 2147483648 bytes
+ (= 2 GiB).
  
  TEST CASE:
- 1. Open Nautilus and copy more than one large file from one partition to another so the launcher item progress bar pops up.
+ 1. Create a bad dummy file:
+     dd if=/dev/zero of=dummy.fail bs=1073741824 count=2
+ 2. Create a working dummy file:
+     cp dummy.bad dummy.good
+     truncate -s 2147483647 dummy.good
+ 3. Open Nautilus and copy each one separately to a different place. Filesystems and partitions shouldn't matter.
  
  RESULT:
- The progress bar doesn't follow the progress shown in Nautilus' file operation dialog.
- 
- Using Unity r1486.
+ * dummy.good: The progress bar follows the progress shown in Nautilus' file dialog.
+ * dummy.bad:  The progress bar doesn't follow the progress shown in Nautilus' file operation dialog.
