** Description changed: + Impact + ------ + nautilus-sendto is installed by default in Noble but it is not being used in nautilus since nautilus dropped the code that used the extension[1] in favor use the xdg-desktop-portal interface instead. + + The issue is that the portal can’t be used to attach files to + thunderbird because the desktop portal constructs an mailto: url with + an attachment= but thunderbird upstream explicitly decided to not allow + adding files from an URL for security reasons. As such, when the user + tries the "Email" button in the file context menu of Nautilus, + Thunderbird launches without any attached file. + + Check also bug report on Nautilus[2] and rejected special casing for + Thunderbird on the portal[3]. + + [1] https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/commit/57be6b74 + [2] https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/2431 + [3] https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal-gtk/pull/447 + + Test plan + --------- + *Ensure that nautilus-sendto is installed. + *Set Thunderbird as the default mail client if it is not already. + *Open Nautilus. + *Select a single or a number of files. + *Right click on the selection. + *Click "email". + + Expected: A Thunderbird email composition window opens and the selected + files are listed as attachments at the bottom of the window. + + Regression potential + -------------------- + The original logic must remain unaltered for the case nautilus-sendto is not installed. + + Original report + --------------- Hi, After upgrade from 22.04 to 22.10 Send an attached file to email from nautilus is not working anymore. Menu sendmail ( courriel in french) appears when i right click on file , then thunderbird appears but without the attachement . It was working very well with previous releases . - regards + regards Yanick ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.10 Package: nautilus 1:43.0-1ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.19.0-23.24-generic 5.19.7 Uname: Linux 5.19.0-23-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.23.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Nov 17 18:42:19 2022 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-10-16 (397 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 21.10 "Impish Indri" - Release amd64 (20211012) ProcEnviron: - TERM=xterm-256color - PATH=(custom, no user) - XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> - LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 - SHELL=/bin/bash + TERM=xterm-256color + PATH=(custom, no user) + XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> + LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) usr_lib_nautilus: - file-roller 43.0-1 - nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal 3.46.2-1ubuntu1 - nautilus-image-converter 0.4.0-2 - python3-nautilus 4.0-1 + file-roller 43.0-1 + nautilus-extension-gnome-terminal 3.46.2-1ubuntu1 + nautilus-image-converter 0.4.0-2 + python3-nautilus 4.0-1
