Gnome shell broke on my installation in the first update so haven't been back to try to figure out how to make it useful, nor do I ever plan to. That said, you make an interesting point when you mention dragging from Nautilus to Geeqie. I have never tried that. I am referring to dragging from Geeqie to Geeqie. After reading your post, though, I tried dragging from Konqueror to Geeqie and it copied the file, no questions asked. Interesting variation that I had not tried before. As feared and expected, my third machine lost its drag/drop functionality on the last upgrade. So, to reiterate: can anyone comment on what library (if any) Geeqie uses to respond to a drop operation in the directory tree? Yes, I might be able to figure it out with yum's logs, but hoped a dev might be reading this and be able to share some insight. Maybe it's the lack of a Gnome shell....
