The bug happens only when the source and directory are on the same partition, that's why it didn't happen on my Desktop. Matt, do you think that's something which should be fixed for dapper?
I worked on it yesterday, I think that would require some change to libnautilus-private/nautilus-dnd.c nautilus_drag_default_drop_action_for_icons() probably but I'm not that comfortable do that changes to that code just before dapper, maybe something for dapper-updates? The bug happens on FC5 too according to vuntz who tried, so it's not due to a distro patch or a recent upstream change -- nautilus tries to move when dragging and dropping from read-only folders, instead of copying https://launchpad.net/bugs/39482 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
