Méven, do you > remember the details? It's getting hazy for me. This just happened to me: - I saved two files in GIMP; - I opened the upload dialogue in Firefox; - the files were not present in "recent files" but were in "Today". The files were saved four minutes ago as I write this and they still haven't appeared in "recent files". So I can confirm that the issue that I reported earlier is as I described it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
