Thank you Sebastien for pointing this out. My understanding is that as of now the old version of nautilus is paired with new GNOME desktop, making this bug specific to Ubuntu. There is no problem with native GNOME desktop or the Ubuntu 14.04 so I am not sure what upstream is supposed to work on. I'm afraid that mixing GNOME software is specific to Ubuntu, and the bug is the result of that integration. Correct me if I'm wrong. Anyway, the upstream bug report follows: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764891
Thank you for your time an co-operation. And, is there a way to integrate the two bug report systems I wonder so that to make it a sort of "Report to Bugzilla" button for Launchpad bugs? ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #764891 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764891 -- 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/1568410 Title: Double-clicking .desktop file makes nautilus show bogus file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1568410/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
