Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pcmanfm
pcmanfm displays incorrect folder sizes in detailed list view. most directories are shown as being 4.0 KB. this may be technically correct, if considering that in linux filesystems everything, including a directory, is a file. however, the end user is expecting to see the size of the directory _and its contents_, as is shown when pcmanfm displays the _properties_ for a directory (->total size of files<-; size on disk). this behavior has been the same for every version of pcmanfm I have ever used. $ lsb_release -dr Description: Ubuntu 8.04.1 Release: 8.04 $ uname -srvmo Linux 2.6.24-21-generic #1 SMP Mon Aug 25 17:32:09 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux $ apt-cache policy pcmanfm pcmanfm: Installed: 0.5-1~hardy1 Candidate: 0.5-1~hardy1 Version table: *** 0.5-1~hardy1 0 500 http://apt-proxy hardy-backports/universe Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 0.3.2.2-2 0 500 http://apt-proxy hardy/universe Packages ** Affects: pcmanfm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- pcmanfm displays incorrect folder sizes in detailed list view https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/268323 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
