Public bug reported: Let's open http://www.ubuntu.com/ at Firefox, an then let's drag "Earth" icon left to site's URL, and drop it to the surface of our desktop-worktable. For now all is fine, icon-link (actually "The leading OS for PC, tablet, phone and cloud | Ubuntu.desktop" file at ~/Desktop) was created, we can open Ubuntu.com site by clicking it. We can delete it, or move to other folder as well. But we can't move it over the desktop surface, error message will be shown after such attempt: Error while copying “/”. There was an error copying the file into /home/renat/Desktop. Error opening file '/': Is a directory
"The leading OS for PC, tablet, phone and cloud | Ubuntu.desktop" file is definitely a file, not a folder, it contains this data: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Link to The leading OS for PC, tablet, phone and cloud | Ubuntu Type=Link URL=http://www.ubuntu.com/ Icon=text-html ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: firefox 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic x86_64 AddonCompatCheckDisabled: False ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: renat 1822 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: renat 1822 F.... pulseaudio BuildID: 20140410211200 Channel: Unavailable CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Tue Apr 22 05:07:01 2014 Extensions: extensions.sqlite corrupt or missing ForcedLayersAccel: False IfupdownConfig: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) auto lo iface lo inet loopback IncompatibleExtensions: Unavailable (corrupt or non-existant compatibility.ini or extensions.sqlite) InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-04-21 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140417) IpRoute: default via 192.168.1.3 dev eth0 proto static 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.149 metric 1 Locales: extensions.sqlite corrupt or missing PrefSources: prefs.js Profiles: Profile0 (Default) - LastVersion=28.0/20140410211200 RelatedPackageVersions: rhythmbox-mozilla 3.0.2-0ubuntu1 totem-mozilla 3.10.1-1ubuntu4 RfKill: RunningIncompatibleAddons: False SourcePackage: firefox Themes: extensions.sqlite corrupt or missing UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 06/11/2010 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 1401 dmi.board.asset.tag: To Be Filled By O.E.M. dmi.board.name: M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK Computer INC. dmi.board.version: Rev X.0x dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacture dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr1401:bd06/11/2010:svnSystemmanufacturer:pnSystemProductName:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKComputerINC.:rnM4A88TD-VEVO/USB3:rvrRevX.0x:cvnChassisManufacture:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: System Product Name dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: System manufacturer ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1310864 Title: Desktop URL shortcuts, added from Firefox, are not movable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1310864/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
