Title: Directory size in properties doesn't count hidden files Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: nautilus What happens : When doing right-click → Properties on a directory's icon, the «Contents» field reports an incorrect file size : hidden files are not take into account. This happens even if hidden files are displayed. This happens both as root and as non-root. What should happen : Hidden files should be included in directory size calculation. If for some bizarre reason you estimate that they shouldn't be taken into account (this violates the principle of least astonishment, but nevermind), at least they should be taken into accound when hidden files are shown. Steps to reproduce : cd /tmp mkdir -p a/.hidden dd if=/dev/urandom of=a/dataOk bs=1M count=5 dd if=/dev/urandom of=a/.hidden/dataIgnored bs=1M count=10 dd if=/dev/urandom of=a/.dataHiddenIgnored bs=1M count=10 du -hs a # du reports 26M. nautilus . # right-click on a → properties reports 5M. lsb_release -rd : Description: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS Release: 10.04 apt-cache policy nautilus : nautilus: Installed : 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1.1 Candidate : 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1.1 Version table : *** 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-updates/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:2.30.0-0ubuntu4 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/730142/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
