[Bug 821544] Re: Places in the sidebar keep listing non existent folders

 

I was filing a bug report for this when I saw this "duplicate." This
issue still exists in the stable Oneiric release (17 Oct 2011). I'm
attaching a screenshot that shows how I've removed bookmarks for Music,
Pictures, Videos, etc but they are still showing up in the Nautilus
Sidepane.

I hope this bug is addressed because all these default bookmarks take up
the majority of space on the Sidepane. For users that don't use these
default bookmarks, it would really be nice to be able to remove them so
space can be created for bookmarks of the user's choosing.

** Attachment added: "Unable to remove default bookmarks (e.g., Music) from Sidepane"

Title:
  Places in the sidebar keep listing non existent folders

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu Oneiric Alpha 3 (session Gnome fallback mode), Nautilus
  displays on its sidebar 3 lists of emplacements: "Bookmarks",
  "Computer" and "Network". In the section "Computer", folders created
  by default on "home" are listed: "Documents", "Downloads", "Music",
  "Pictures", etc.

  If we remove on "home" one of these folders (for example "Music"),
  it's still listed on the section "Computer", even if we kill and
  restart Nautilus. If we click on the non existent folder on the
  sidebar, we have this error message:

  >Could not find "/home/ubuntu/Music".
  >Please check the spelling and try again.

  Expected result: non existent folders should not be listed.
