Package: ethereal
Version: 0.10.9-1
Severity: normal
Ethereal has lost its abililty to let the user type in a path and
filename when opening files from the GUI. The only way to do it now
is the cumbersome one-directory-at-a-time navigation window, which is
frankly unusable when dealing with directories far fom $HOME or containing
many files.
I am not sure when this regression occurred, if you wish I will check back
using snapshot.debian.net to when it was last usable - please let me know.

This is not a ethereal bug this is a GTK+ feature. Put quotes around
that. I heard it may improve in later GTK+ version, don't know much
about that. In the meantime you can use ctrl-l to get a text entry field.
There is http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=256539 and I
remember long threads on [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Frederic
