[Bug 697440] [NEW] Can't save files over the network using non standard gnome programs

[Alex Moldovan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

Firefox and Thunderbird along with lots of non standard gnome
applications can't save files over the network because the save dialog
doesn't show the network shares as they are in Places if you have a
samba share mounted. The workaround is to go through the hidden .gvfs
folder (Ctrl+H) in your home folder to save the file.
