Public bug reported:
When dragging and dropping files from my local disk to a connected USB
key, Nautilus claims that the key is read-only. Copying the same files
via the command line works.
Steps to reproduce:
- Plug in a USB key that has space on it and that is not write protected
- Drag and drop a file from an another device to the key in Nautilus
Expected result: the file is copied
Actual result: Nautilus shows an error window that claims the key is
read only (see screen shot)
Workaround: copy the files via the command line
