Public bug reported: I've built nautilus 3.7.90 on raring and things seem to work fine. This required reverting 7 commits for GTK 3.6, 1 commit that needed gnome- disks 3.7.90 (and udisks 2.1.90), and 1 commit that needed gsettings- desktop-schemas. It sounds like the Desktop Team is still considering updating GTK to 3.8 for raring which would reduce the number of patches needed.
GNOME 3.7 is now feature frozen so the risk going forward of disruptive changes should be minimal. One additional change is that as of yesterday, nautilus master no longer handles drawing the desktop wallpaper but we can revert those changes for the benefit of metacity users (Compiz/Unity currently doesn't handle drawing the wallpaper either). One regression is that gnome-shell 3.7 changed the search provider API so we need a patch to get nautilus 3.7 to work with the earlier API. There are several improvements in the new nautilus, some of which are fairly tricky to attempt backporting. - There is now optional tree navigation in the list view - Nautilus supports a --select commandline option to select a given URI (this sounds like something the Unity files lens needs for its Right click >Show in Folder option) - Full list at http://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/tree/NEWS ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130746 Title: Update to nautilus 3.7.90 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1130746/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
