** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues #634 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/634 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1826266 Title: Nautilus no longer copies file path when a file is marked then copied Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In previous versions of Ubuntu, copying in nautilus behaved so that it was possible to select a file, Ctrl+C (or just right-click + copy) and the resulting data on the clipboard was a "pasteable" file path that could be used directly in a terminal or by Ctrl+V in an open file dialog box. This was incredibly powerful. Ubuntu 19 behaves differently. If I for example select my .zshrc file in nautilus and past into terminal, the resulting output is: x-special/nautilus-clipboard copy file:///home/trond/.zshrc performing the same on Ubuntu 18 or lower would copy the literal path of the file: /home/trond/.zshrc imho this is a bug as it deteriorates the overall file management experience in Ubuntu.
