Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
[Ubuntu 8.04 Nautilus 2.22.3]
Hi,
There appears to be a bug in the nautilus file rename feature.
You cannot rename a file to a name which differs only by case from the
original name. For example, renaming a folder named 'Music' to music is
not allowed. nautilus thinks that there is already a file called 'music'
there. This would appear to be because the very file which is being
renamed is matching a case-insensitive search for an existing file. The
code should not count the file-being-renamed as a match in this case.
It is possible to rename 'Music' to 'music' by going through an
intermediate step, eg 'Music' -> 'mMusic' -> 'music'.
Thanks,
Patrick Byrne
