Package: nautilus
Version: 2.4.1-3
Severity: normal
Tags: sid


When trying to copy a file using drag and drop from ~/Desktop to
/floppy:

    /dev/sda on /floppy type msdos (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,user=janneke)
    Linux oliebij 2.4.22-1-686 #6 Sat Oct 4 14:09:08 EST 2003 i686 GNU/Linux

there's a popup that says:

    Error: "invalid parameters" while copying.

    Would you like to continue? 
    [Skip]* [Cancel] [Retry]

and the file does not get copied.  The file can be copied in from a shell.

I notice a similar problem report in the archives of the nautilus list
last December:

    http://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-list/2002-December/msg00125.html

but the thread stops short of a solution.  The strace says:

    $ grep -B2 EINVAL natuilus.trace
    00:09:11.767397 open("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 10
    00:09:11.767592 fstat64(10, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0444, st_rdev=makedev(1, 9), ...}) = 0

    $ groups
    janneke adm disk dialout voice cdrom floppy audio

It seems that nautilus would need a rebuild, so I decided to try that
first, but it seems not possible at this point:

    $ sudo apt-get -f install
    Reading Package Lists... Done
    Building Dependency Tree... Done
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
    $ sudo apt-get build-dep nautilus
    Reading Package Lists... Done
    Building Dependency Tree... Done
    E: Some broken packages were found while trying to process build-dependencies for nautilus.
    You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
