Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xsane
Hello I use Ubuntu 7.10 (French)
on the following (small) bug happens.
Since Gutsy the Desktop is mapped to the folder:
- /home/user/Desktop in English
- /home/user/Bureau in French
- /home/user/Büro in German
.. and so on ...
Steps to reproduce the bug:
*1 Use an non-english version (for instance I use the French one, and the
Desktop folder is /home/user/Bureau )
*2 do a scan
*3 the scanner scans the image and the "xsane image viewer" pops up
*4 click on the "save" button
*5 the save dialog box appears and there are 3 shortcuts on the dialog box: One
to the user's home folder, on to the desktop folder and one to the documents
folder.
*6 click on the "Desktop" shortcut
=> the image is then "saved" to the /home/user/Desktop folder instead of the
/home/user/Bureau folder. So a new folder is created and the user does not see
the images appear on his desktop. This type of behavior can totally fool a
total beginner: the images seems disappearing to him.
Additionnally,
the 3 shortcuts of point *5 are not translated (on french version)
Thanks for reading
