Title:
GtkFileChooser should sort folders first
Status in ubuntu-settings package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
* Impact:
- the gtk3 fileselector doesn't sort folders before file, it's inconsistant
with old versions and other applications and toolkits
* Test case:
- use the fileselector in a gtk3 software (e.g gedit) and see if folders are
sorted before files in the list
* Regression potential!:
it's only changing a default, shouldn't have other impact
--------
Upstream had the bad idea of not sorting folders first anymore in GTK
3.14. However they added an option later in commit
2aa3eea781ed21a02ecdf1e3c753a1ec5694d6c8. Since we cannot introduce
new strings, ubuntu should revert the default in the 3.14 package.
