Yes, this bug is reproducible on Feisty. I modified the description to
include more details.
** Summary changed:
- After hiding a directory and deleting it afterwards it stays in nautilus visible
+ created .hidden folders/files stays visible after being moved/deleted
** Description changed:
- If you create a directory with nautilus and hide it afterwards it does
- not disapear till refresh (I don't think that is a bug, but has changed
- from prev. versions). If you delete the "going-to-be" hided directory
- afterwards it is moved to trash, but you can still see it in the
- directory until refresh.
- Using version: 2.13.3-0ubuntu5 from dapper.
+ 1st bug: created .hidden folders in the Desktop folder appears on The Desktop (Hide all windows and show the desktop) and stays visible even if deleted
+ 2nd bug: deleting a just created .hidden folder while "show hidden files" is unchecked stays visible in the file manager until a refresh.
+
+ - Desktop folder : ~/Desktop
+ - The Desktop : Hide all windows and show the desktop
+
+ How to reproduce: (using nautilus)
+ - With or without view > show hidden files checked (does not matter)
+ 1. Create a folder .testfolder in the Desktop folder
+ visible on The Desktop (1st bug)
+ 2. delete this folder
+ - Although the folder does not appear in the file browser, it stays visible on The Desktop (1st bug)
+
+ - With view > show hidden files unchecked
+ Create a folder named .testfolder in any location and then delete it
+ - The folder stays visible in nautilus until a refresh (2nd bug)
+
+ Notes:
+ 1. The above steps produce the same bug for created documents (right click > create document ..)
+ 2. Using the rm/mv commands to delete or move the folder created from nautilus also requires a refresh to hide them in nautilus (the folder is replaced with a file of unknown type and undetermined permissions)
+
+ Version information:
+ Ubuntu Feisty
+ original reported on dapper by georg and KarlGoetz
