About the "Cannot extract archives in a remote folder "<foldername>" on drag and drop...
I've looked at the code and, to me, it seems that developers have forgotten to remove a test that prevented extraction to a remote folder in the previous versions, when this was not possible. As now they added support for remote extraction via gnome-vfs ***, I don't think the error message is necessary. so... I've attached a patch against file-roller 2.19.91 (it just deletes the "if" condition for non local uris in the dnd extraction) I don't have much time now, please test it :) *** see http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointNineteen/ReleaseNotes , "Uses gnome-vfs to load and save remote archives, as well as to add remote files to an archive and to extract to remote locations. USED." ** Attachment added: "file-roller 2.19.91 patch (remove error on extract to remote location by dnd)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9197788/remote-dnd-fix.patch -- Drag n' Drop directories from File-Roller is somewhat tricky https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/13199 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
