[Bug 868032] Re: nautilus progress window marked skipped, not managed by gnome-shell

 

rants, not helpful guys, really.... you might be frustrated but that's
not the way to solve those issues, there is just not enough contributors
working on those packages to fix all the issues, no complaining,
ranting, insulting will change that, you will just maybe manage to
demovative the few contributors that try to be helpful to do less

it has a medium impact on a non default desktop environment, that's not
an issue under unity or unity-2d or kde or xfce...

Particularly when the fix is simply to remove a completely unnecessary
Ubuntu-specific patch.

that's wrong, as pointed before and detailed by Didier the patch fixes
and issue in the default desktop environment

@julo

and treat bug reporters.

the problem is maybe the low ration of maintainer compared to the number
of softwares and users. Take a step back there, the system you are using
is made by people, who often work crazy number of hours in a week on in
their evenings, on a product you get for free, are you complaining that
those people just don't work hard enough to your taste? Do you think
it's right of fair to hit harder on them because the result is not
perfect? Do you think it's going to "solve" all the problems?

> You can't just ignore such an easy-to-fix bug for a month and expect
people to wait and shut their mouth...

The statements you do there are just wrong, the fix is required for the
default Ubuntu desktop so it's not as easy as dropping it, the default
desktop is what most of the current desktop team is running which
explains why we sometime not notice issues happening in other variants,
we would welcome help maintaining GNOME and gnome-shell though and we
would welcome patches for those "easy-to-fix" bugs gnome-shell users run
into, what about stepping up and trying to help rather than complain
that other don't give enough of their time?

Title:
  nautilus progress window marked skipped, not managed by gnome-shell

Status in GNOME Shell:
  Unknown
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When running nautilus and doing a file transfer that brings up the file
  operations window, I noticed that the window doesn't appear in the Alt+Tab
  grouping for nautilus, and does not appear in the gnome-shell Windows activity
  or even in the thumbnail for the workspace that the window resides in. This
  makes it very difficult to find when there are many windows in the current
  workspace, which is usually the case in my workflow.
