[Bug 1300308] Re: "select items matching" (ctrl+s) only selects one file

 

What I can add with this strange behaviour, that if I use pattern that
should work for many files - it will always mark the same file.

I have such files:
01_Stary_niedzwiedz.mp3
02_Uki.mp3
03_Lokomotywa.mp3
04_Kaczuszki.mp3
05_Banke_lap.mp3
07_Gruszka.mp3
08_Ja jestem Gummi_Mis.mp3
09_Olimpiada_w_Jarzynowie.mp3
10_Cztery_slonie.mp3
11_Uwierz_w_siebie.mp3
12_Mucha_w_mucholocie.mp3
13_Niech_zuje_gol.mp3
14_Spacer_to_przygoda.mp3
15_Piosenka_Buni.mp3
16_Smoczek_smoczek.mp3

If I use pattern "*.mp3" it will always point seccond file "02_Uki.mp3". If I change extension of that file, and next try with the same pattern nautilus will select file "11_Uwierz_w_siebie.mp3".
Whatever file I will select before using "select items matching" its always chose the very same file matching the pattern.

Title:
  "select items matching" (ctrl+s) only selects one file

Status in Nautilus:
  New
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  steps to reproduce:
  1. open folder in files/nautilus which contains multiple files and/or folders
  2. type ctrl+s to bring up the "select items matching" dialog
  3. type glob pattern into text entry field which should match multiple files
  4. choose OK

  observed behavior:
   - only the first matching file is selected

  This bug makes the "select items matching" feature completely
  nonfunctional, and is a regression from earlier versions of nautilus /
  files.
