The bug is old and Ubuntu changed quite a lot since, there has also been
no activity here nor similar reports. Closing since we believe the issue
as described is deprecated but feel free to file a new report if you
still have problems in recent Ubuntu versions.

Title:
File access field is not properly updated in folder properties
(Nautilus)
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
Invalid
Status in Nautilus:
New
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Distribution: Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala
Input: Start Nautilus and right click a folder; select "Properties" ->
"Permissions" tab and change "File access" for a group of users (e.g.
setting read only access for "Others"). Click on "Apply permissions to
enclosed files"
Expected: permissions up-to-date and "file access" control in dialog
updated with the new status
Deviation: permissions are set but the control in not properly updated
(e.g. showing "read-only" for others). It still shows "---"
Papercut: user is not able to tell from "Properties" form whether the
system has indeed changed the permissions; it is also not possible to
view later which permissions were assigned to files in that folder and
subfolders
Open point: what about the situation when mixed permissions are
available in the folder? For example I have a top folder with 5
subfolders, 3 of them with files "read-only" for "Others" and the rest
with no access of any kind for "Others". The "file access" control
should show that I have mixed permissions (it still shows "---")
