Public bug reported:

Dear all,

Ubuntu 11.04 currently ships with Nautilus Actions version 3.0.5-1.
However, this version has some issues which have been solved by newer
versions. In particular, I have experienced this issue: http://mailman
.nautilus-actions.org/pipermail/users-list/2011-May/000016.html, which
according to Nautilus Actions authors has been fixed in v3.1.2.

How to reproduce the issue in Ubuntu 11.04:
1) Install package nautilus-actions
2) Confirm installed version is 3.0.5-1
3) Create executable shell script /bin/show_params.sh with below contents:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/zenity --info --text="$*"
4) Open Nautilus Actions Configuration, and create an action that runs the 
command show_param.sh with parameters=%F
5) In Nautilus, right click a file with a space in the file name, and select 
the action you created in step #4
6) In the popup dialog you will see that space is converted to "%20" (percent 
20). As you can easily guess, applications expect to receive " " or "\ " when 
there is a space, not "%20", so they give "file not found" errors.

Thanks in advance

Gaston
