Hi there,
I got a really strange issue where the file name returned by self.get_local_uri() in a File (actually the MediaFile subclass) returns a filename with spaces changed to %20 (just like quote in urllib would do). Is this normal behaviour?
BTW
This is not normal, and the File abstraction class should actually hide all of this. Its probbably something to do with how URIs are joined, or something like that.
Perhaps it may be worth adding some additional URI manipulation functions to the base File class, that are then delegated to the specific file implementation. Or then again the bug could be somewhere else.

p.s. I am still waiting on a test for the iPod conversion stuff.....
The file in question is being synced by a file source.
Hi!
I would love to be able to work on this, but I have been out of action for the last two weeks, as I relocated to France for a PhD exchange, and amongst other problems I have a completely broken ubuntu intrepid install, and I only just regained the ability to commit to svn again (new laptop and SSH key).
Basically I would really appreciate it if someone else could look into this. I am just one man, and have not time over the next week.
This was obviously introduced in the transition to GIO, so the first step in tracking this down is
1) Make a repeatable test case
2) Run this test using the GIO and GnomeVfs backends to identify where the problem is
3) Fix the problem in one/both or common parts of the code.
Basically I would LOVE to be able to fix this, but basically ATM it is impossible for me. All file related tests passed before I commited the file abstraction code so the problem is either
1) New
2) Was previously untested
May I stress again that a repeatable test case added to the test suite is the most important step here.
Apologies that I cannot do more over the next week, Im asking for your help on this one
John
