** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: pidgin
  
  Usually pidgin asks, what to do with a file, when one drags something into 
the chat-window from nautilus' filemanager or desktop.
  Pidgin does not do so when trying to drag a file from an NAS (connected via 
LAN and sharing via SMB, here) using gnome's nautilus.
  I think this would give a great improvement to the usablility of NASes 
especially for using them as music- and photo-archives.
  
  This might be a problem of nautilus, DBus, or something else. Or Pidgin can 
simply not handle the smb://-link.
  I don't know, but I stumbled on this, while using pidgin, so I think, it is 
better to report it here than not to report it at all.
  
- Ah, I am on Ubuntu gutsy, here. Nautilus is 1:2.20.0-0ubuntu7 (gutsy),
- pidgin is 1:2.2.1-1ubuntu4, as synaptic states,
+ I am on Ubuntu gutsy, here. Nautilus is 1:2.20.0-0ubuntu7 (gutsy), pidgin is

+ I tried this with buddies using ICQ/AIM, only, because I do only have ICQ- 
and some jabber-using people in my contact-list.
