Public bug reported:
I refuse to waste my time reporting this upstream, since Gnome
developers (or at least Nautilus developers) have proven in several
occasions to be a bunch of idiots unable to deal with bug reports (or
with bugs in general). You deal with them.
I had a folder containing a bunch of image files, namely .png files,
named 1.png, 2.png .... up to 100.png and more.
I deleted many of them and then renamed the remaining ones to 1.png
through 21.png.
Now I look at the folder and all the thumbs have not been updated. For
example, the thumb of say 5.png is the thumb of the image that used to
be called 5.png before renaming.
Even hitting f5 does not rebuild the thumbs, and if I right-click on the
folder I don't see any option in the context menu to manually force-
rebuild the thumns (which shouldn't be necessary in the first place but
should be something I'd be able to do).
It's obvious that renaming files should invalidate the thumbs cache.
Fucking pathetic.
