[Bug 1058602] Re: [regression] Samba shares showing up in Launcher - No way to remove permanently

 

Fresh install of 14.04.1 64bit, when I insert or remove DVD from DVD
Writer, samba shares (cifs) reappear. If I unlock DVD icon from
launcher, it also removes ALL samba share icons. Similarly, if I again
remove ANY samba share icon, they ALL disaapear, together with DVD icon.
Safely removing USB flash/HD does has the same behaviour in about 50% of
cases.

Title:
  [regression] Samba shares showing up in Launcher - No way to remove
  permanently

Status in Unity:
  New
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 12.10 beta 2, freshly upgraded from 12.04, I'm now getting
  my Samba shares (mounted using cifs, so with an entry in fstab)
  showing up in the Launcher, with network folders icons, which was not
  the case before.

  I'm not sure if it's a feature or a bug, but for sure, there should be
  a way to disable this, globally (i.e. option to not show network
  shares in Launcher) or for each icon (i.e. with "remove from Launcher"
  in the menu).  For internal hard disk, which is also showing up in the
  Launcher since 12.10, there is a "Remove from Launcher" option in the
  menu, which is great.
