Package: gthumb Version: 3:2.10.2-4 Severity: important
If pictures are stored on another drive such as an automount drive and accessed via symlinks then thumbnails are not displayed. The following errors are produced: shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: No such file or directory and for each thumbnail: (gthumb:14645): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: gnome_vfs_uri_new_private: assertion `text_uri != NULL' failed ** (gthumb:14645): WARNING **: Unsupported operation It seems to me the problem is caused by getcwd which returns the absolute path. This has the effect of making "symlink2dir/.." non-equivalent to "." So if you have an automount filesystem /dsk/xx and a symlink ~/photos->/dsk/xx ls -l ~/photos/.. will list the contents of /dsk rather than ~/ My guess is that this makes gthumb unable to locate ~/.thumnails. I guess also that this is an upstream problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.19.2-ron (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gthumb depends on: ii gconf2 2.18.0.1-3 GNOME configuration database syste ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.19-3 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libatk1.0-0 1.18.0-2 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonobo2-0 2.18.0-2 Bonobo CORBA interfaces library ii libbonoboui2-0 2.18.0-5 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.5-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.6-1.1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libexif12 0.6.15-1 library to parse EXIF files ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libgconf2-4 2.18.0.1-3 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.0-4 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.12-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-keyring0 0.8.1-2 GNOME keyring services library ii libgnome2-0 2.18.0-4 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomecanvas2-0 2.14.0-3 A powerful object-oriented display ii libgnomeui-0 2.18.1-2 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.18.1-2 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgphoto2-2 2.3.1-5 gphoto2 digital camera library ii libgphoto2-port0 2.3.1-5 gphoto2 digital camera port librar ii libgtk2.0-0 2.10.12-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libice6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liborbit2 1:2.14.7-0.1 libraries for ORBit2 - a CORBA ORB ii libpango1.0-0 1.16.4-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libpopt0 1.10-3 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1 X11 Session Management library ii libtiff4 3.8.2-7 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-7 userspace USB programming library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.8-2 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.28.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.1-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.2-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii scrollkeeper 0.3.14-13 A free electronic cataloging syste ii shared-mime-info 0.21-2 FreeDesktop.org shared MIME databa ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-15 compression library - runtime gthumb recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
