[Bug 351824] [NEW] Embedded terminal changes to wrong directory

[John M]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gedit-plugins

Using gedit in jaunty beta, with the embedded terminal plugin enabled,
and selecting the option "Change directory" in the embedded terminal,
does not change to the directory that corresponds to the active
document, but to its parent directory.

For example, if I open the file "/home/${USER}/tutorial/texts/hello.txt"
in gedit, activate the bottom pane and right-click the embedded terminal
to select "Change directory", the terminal will point to the
"/home/${USER}/tutorial" directory, instead of pointing to
"/home/${USER}/tutorial/texts".

The "Change directory" option worked just fine in all the previous
versions (i.e., intrepid, hardy, gutsy,...), so it seems like a
regression.
