[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#642060: pcb-gtk: File chooser does not default to cwd

[Stephan Boettcher]

Package: pcb-gtk
Version: 20100929-2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Probably a gtk or gnome issue, the file chooser does no
longer default to $cwd.  This is _not_ a usability improvement
for applications like pcb, this is a bug.  Maybe the bug 
is that the option to configure the old behavior is hidden 
too well?

I guess the root cause is here:

 https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/technical-board/2011-April/000785.html

  * For bonus points, see what happens if a file chooser that hasn't had a
    directory set on it (e.g. one that would just show $cwd by default) were
    made to show the last-used folder.  See how that feels with various
    apps.

It fees bad.  There is not even a CWD button.
