[Bug 882307] Re: [list-view] After copying text from a rename entry, file copy menus items are broken

 

@Pedro, Joao
Should the upstream bug be closed (invalidated?) since this seems to happen only in Ubuntu? Just to prevent Ubuntu developers from waiting for upstream while upstream sees nothing to do. Also, maybe the importance should be higher (medium?) for a bug in something as basic as file management?

I could only reproduce this bug with Ubuntu (e.g. current Precise live
system or my installed 11.10). Neither Mint 12 nor Fedora 16 show this
bug.

@ Joao
Thanks for filing this bug. I was totally mystified why I could not paste till I read the specifics in your report.
