I'm having a go at fixing this just and and a question has just occurred to me: how useful is this feature? Is there really a use case for people not wanting to display all the tracks on their hard drive within Rhythmbox while keeping the files intact? It wouldn't seem to me that such a feature would be widely used.
The average user would want all their music contained within their music library, in much the same way they would want all their CDs on the same shelf (or set of shelves). Having it all in the one place just makes it easier to manage and the 'Remove from library' features just seems rather niche. Is it really necessary to keep a little used feature that doesn't even work properly? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75654 Title: deleted songs listed again when using library watch Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts: Triaged Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application: New Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Rhythmbox does not remember that I have removed (Edit -> Remove) a track from the Library.
