Public bug reported: nautilus 1:3.1.4-0ubuntu3, Ubuntu Ocelot
1. In Nautilus, choose "File" > "Connect to Server", and connect to a server that you have write access to. 2. Create a folder on the server. 3. Drag the folder to the Trash in Nautilus's sidebar. What you see: * 'Cannot move file to the Trash, do you want to delete it immediately?" * 'The file "test2" cannot be moved to the Trash." What's wrong with this: * The sentence is grammatically incomplete, which saves only one word. * It's a run-on sentence. * The secondary text uses Ascii quotes. * The secondary text doesn't add any new information to the primary text, except the filename, which could just as easily go in the primary text. * Neither of them explain *why* the item can't be moved to the Trash. * Most obviously, both primary and secondary text incorrectly refers to the folder as a "file". What you should see: * '“test2” can’t be put in the Trash, because it is on a server. Do you want to delete it immediately?' * No secondary text, because there's nothing else to say. :-) ** Affects: nautilus Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: nautilus 1:3.1.4-0ubuntu3, Ubuntu Ocelot 1.
