Re: File selection in nautilus doesn't work

[Christoph Siegenthaler <christoph siegenthaler gmail com>]

Hi Ulrik
 
Sorry, forgot that I asked on the list.
I'm running it on Arch Linux and the PKGBUILD I used to build kupfer hasn't had realpath as a dependency.
It works great now!
 
Best regards, Chris

Hi,

It should work if you restart nautilus after installing
Kupfer/Kupfer's nautilus plugin. In Kupfer you press Ctrl+G to bring
up the selected file(s). If it doesn't work, look for errors in
~/.xsession-errors or in Kupfer's output in a terminal. It may be
something related to Nautilus' plugin install path
/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-2.0/  vs
/usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-1.0/   all these possibilities can be
tried, if it is something like this, then it's a problem that we
haven't seen yet.
