Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rhythmbox
I have a fresh, up-to-date gutsy i686 installation.
In Rhythmbox, when choosing Import Folder, the Gnome open folder dialog
will open in the last folder that was opened (as expected). For certain
folders, if the user clicks Open immediately (i.e., that folder is
already the one that the user wants to import), then nothing happens.
The dialog does not close and there is no error message. In order to
open the folder, the user must navigate to a different folder, navigate
back, and then click Open. For me, this happens with "~/Untagged Music",
but not with ~/Music, ~/Desktop, or ~/. As a test, it also happens for
me with "~/Folder with Spaces", "~/FolderWithoutSpaces", and
"~/Folderwithoutcapitals". For the folders with which this occurs, it is
100% reproducible.
Note that I have also seen this bug in Debian.
Repro steps:
Try the following steps with a variety of different folders (recommended
to try creating the ones I named above).
1) Open rhythmbox.
2) Choose File -> Import Folder. Navigate to a folder of your choice and click
Open.
3) Choose File -> Import Folder again. (The dialog begins in the same folder
that you opened in (2).)
4) Click Open without navigating anywhere.
Results: Eventually, you should find a folder for which step (4) consistently
does nothing.
Expected: The folder should be imported.
Workaround: Navigate to a different folder, navigate back, and click Open.
Note that since Rhythmbox doesn't track additions to imported folders,
users may frequently be re-importing the same folder, so particular
users may see this bug a lot.
