But we're missing a changelog entry. Once there is one, please create a debdiff, attach it here and then subscribe ubuntu-sponsors. ** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + During a file rename operation on the desktop, when using the cursor keys to move the cursor forward or backwards, the dialog closes. It's only possible to move the cursor by using the mouse. + + Moving the cursor when renaming a file is very common, because a lot of + cases consist on adding or removing something at the end of the + filename, or change the extension, so nearly all users will suffer this + bug. It's true that they can use the mouse, but for users used to the + keyboard, this is a very cumbersome bug. + + [ Test Plan ] + + In the desktop, right-click over an icon and select 'Rename...'. When + the rename popup appears, press the left or the right cursor key to move + the cursor. + + If the bug is there, the popup will disappear and no renaming will + happen. If the bug has been fixed, the text cursor will move forward or + backwards, as expected. + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + The patch mainly affects the hotkeys code, so a mistake in those changes + could disable the keyboard shortcuts for the desktop. In the worst case, + the desktop main program won't run, thus leaving the desktop without + icons. No data loss would happen, so just reverting to the previous + version of the code would be enough to fix the problem. + + [ Other Info ] Equipo utilizado: OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS x86_64 Host: B450M DS3H Kernel: 6.8.0-31-generic Uptime: 1 hour, 52 mins Packages: 2496 (dpkg), 16 (snap) Shell: bash 5.2.21 Resolution: 1920x1080 DE: GNOME 46.0 WM: Mutter WM Theme: Adwaita Theme: Yaru-blue-dark [GTK2/3] Icons: Yaru-blue-dark [GTK2/3] Terminal: gnome-terminal CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200G (4) @ 3.600GH GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 Memory: 2137MiB / 7878MiB - - [ User impact ] - - Moving the cursor when renaming a file is very common, because a lot of - cases consist on adding or removing something at the end of the - filename, or change the extension, so nearly all users will suffer this - bug.
