nautilus (1:46.2-0ubuntu0.3) noble; urgency=medium
[ Nathan Pratta Teodosio ]
* d/p/u/nautilus-sendto.patch extended:
If {nautilus_sendto installed && mailer is a snap && folder in selection},
do not present 'Email' option, as Nautilus then compresses the selected
files to a zip, which it creates in /tmp, to which a snap doesn't have
access (LP: #2072569).

Title:
Sending a folder won't work with nautilus-sendto and a snapped mail
client
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in nautilus source package in Noble:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Alongside nautilus, nautilus-sendto is installed by default in Noble.
It is used when sending files via Nautilus' 'Email' context menu
option for a selection.
In contrast to a selection without folders, whereby Nautilus just
passes their paths to the mailer for attaching, when the selection to
be mailed contains a folder, Nautilus puts all the selected files in a
zip under the /tmp directory and then passes that as an attachment.
Snaps, however, do no have access to /tmp, which causes no file to be
attached[1].
The proposal therefore removes the 'Email' option when a folder is in
the selection
[Test plan]
--> Main routine <--
1. Ensure that nautilus-sendto is installed.
2. Install a snapped email client, say, Thunderbird, and set it as the
default mail client.
3. Open Nautilus.
4. Select at least one folder.
5. Right click on the selection.
* Expected: No 'Email' option must be available in the context menu.
Run the main routine above but alter 4 to have no folder in the selection,
just regular files.
* Expected: 'Email' option must be available in the context menu.
Run the main routine above but alter 2 to use an unsnapped email client (e.g.
claws-mail) as default.
* Expected: 'Email' option must be available in the context menu.
[Regression potential]
Regressions would manifest in Nautilus' email integration, of which
only the context menu 'Email' described above is known to the author.
