On some of my machines, iceweasel's File Upload screen lacks the Location: entry filed. On others it is still there. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

bummer you are right ...
aehm, can please *someone* do something against this brain-deadness?
I cannot believe that any human would agree in the fact that I *have*
to clicky-clicky through long hierarchies instead of typing the
text?
Are we loosing reasonability here?
Can please at least the Debian package revert this useless change?
Best wishes

OK, I have a partial workaround. You still get the popup File Upload window, but In the upper left corner of the File Upload window, there is a button showing pen and paper. Click it and the Location: input box appears. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

Bummer. Thanks for letting me know. I honestly be also one that
disagrees with that. Furthermore, point of clearing the input
field is unclear to me, too. How should that be done. I just tried
it myself. It is *NOT* possible to clear a file name entered
into that field.
I consider this defective behaviour, and I consider this a bug that
should be fixed.
But anyway, you wontfixed it, so I have to live with that pain (ita)
