Title:
gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.0.0-0ubuntu1 fails to create thumbnailers
schema directory /usr/share/thumbnailers and necessary files within
Status in “gsettings-desktop-schemas” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: gsettings-desktop-schemas
I am running 3 machines (with diverse hardware) with amd64 Natty and
the Gnome3 ppa (Gnome Shell) installed. In order to get Nautilus
thumbnails working (especially pdf thumbnails), I had to do the
following steps:
1) Create the gsettings thumbnailer directory as root:
sudo -s
mkdir /usr/share/thumbnailers
2) Create the “evince-thumbnailer.thumbnailer” configuration file in
/usr/share/thumbnailers AND make it readable by users (in particular
nautilus running as user)
sudo gedit /usr/share/thumbnailers/evince-thumbnailer.thumbnailer
chmod 644 /usr/share/thumbnailers/evince-thumbnailer.thumbnailer
With the following contents:
[Thumbnailer Entry]
TryExec=/usr/bin/evince-thumbnailer
Exec=/usr/bin/evince-thumbnailer -s %s %u %o
MimeType=application/pdf;application/x-pdf;image/pdf;
This immediately fixes the lack of pdf thumbnails in Nautilus
3.0.0-0ubuntu1~build3 (provided by Evince 3.0.0-0ubuntu1~build1
evince-thumbnailer).
It also automatically populates the /usr/share/thumbnailers directory
with the following files related to thumbnails for other mime types:
$ ls -al /usr/share/thumbnailers

I have attached a tar.gzipped copy of my /usr/share/thumbnailers
folder (i.e. with the same files as above).
