[Bug 899096] Re: Cannot block a folder with a space in the name!

 

After writing some extensive test cases, I can say that blacklisting
with spaces and special characters works fine with Zeitgeist, so I'm
closing the Zeitgeist task.

This is a bug in Activity Log Manager, which is inserting strings like
"file:///home/rainct/tmp/test/with spaces foo yeah/*". The spaces in
there need to be escaped to be a valid URI. Please construct the path
with g_build_path and use g_file_new_for_path+g_file_get_uri to get a
valid URI for use with Zeitgeist.

  Cannot block a folder with a space in the name!

Bug description:
  In Activity Log Manager, go to the Files tab, bottom section, select a
  path that has a space in it somewhere and add it to the list. Open a
  file in that folder.

  The file shouldn't appear on the recent files list, but it does! It
  only works if you rename the folders without a space, e.g. "Two_Words"
  instead of "Two Words".
