** Description changed:
Binary package hint: nautilus
9.10: Nautilus 2.28.1
In the list view the difference in permissions does not result in
appropriate icon differences. (only one emblem is shown)
i.e. in the case below a lock emblem is shown but the X emblem for
inaccessible is not shown in the list view.
(The lock is suggesting heavy access restriction but meaning read-
only. Maybe better put a pen behind the lock or X if item is not
writeable)
Case:
I added a second user user2 to the machine and added user1 to the user2
group. After newly logging in as user1 and browsing to
/home/user2 drwxrwxr-x 23 user2 user2
In listview I see both these examples only with the lock emblem
although I can not enter the 2nd dir:
- Desktop drwxr-xr-x 2 user2 user2
- private drwx-- 6 user2 user2
+ /home/user2/Desktop drwxr-xr-x 2 user2 user2
+ /home/user2/private drwx-- 6 user2 user2
- /root and /lost+found directories do display with only the x emblem
in listview.
- - The lock emblem seems to be suppressed (in all views) for dirs other
- then subdirs of homedirs?
+ - The lock emblem (read-only) seems to be suppressed (in all views) for
+ dirs other then subdirs of homedirs?
+
+ Possible solution:
+ -Provide more intuitve read-only emblem and don't suppress it for system
folders.
+ -Show inaccessible dirs greyed-out instead of with an X emblem.
