I agree that this a very unpleasant change. I tried the patch, but I can't build the nautilus source (in the make, I get "fatal error: zeitgeist.h: No such file or directory", even if I have the zeitgeist package installed**).
Is there any other way? ** Reply to comment #13: In order to install a patch, you have to 1) Copy the patch file to a new folder 2) In that folder, do a "sudo apt-get source PACKAGE_NAME" 3) Copy the patch file into the new package folder in that dir 4) type "patch -p1 < patch_file_name" 5) sudo make (maybe you'll need to do a "sudo . /configure" first). Here you'll have to install all the dependencies that the package need to be build. 6) make install -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1026254 Title: Open with on folders was removed, Ubuntu should consider patching back Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This rev removed the context option. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~vcs-imports/nautilus/master-git/revision/16061 While unlikely to be reconsidered upstream I know many Ubuntu users find the option handy.
