Screenshot with bug

Version:           2.3.1
OS:                Linux

If directory contains & in the name then amarok doesn't display it correctly.
I.e. directory named "Then & Now" is displayed as "Then _Now".

See attached screeenshot.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Try to open directory with & in the name.



OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i686.PAE
Compiler: gcc

Is all your system cofigured in UTF-8 or UTF-16? Please check your LOCALE settings
Comment 2 Oleg Atamanenko 2010-07-19 04:13:27 UTC
My locale is UTF-8.
Comment 3 Myriam Schweingruber 2010-07-19 10:14:46 UTC
Thank you for the feedback. Actually, Amarok displays it correctly in both the breadcrumb line and the File Browser, just not in the drop-down of the breadcrumb. The same breadcrumb dropdown in Dolphin displays it correctly.
Comment 4 Oleg Atamanenko 2010-07-19 10:51:38 UTC
Yes, I've tested same case in dolphin. It works perfectly - in dropdown &'s are displayed. So issue is in amarok only.
Comment 5 Myriam Schweingruber 2011-10-11 11:17:32 UTC
Is this report still valid with Amarok 2.4.3 or the current git version?
Comment 6 Oleg Atamanenko 2011-10-12 01:17:56 UTC
In 2.4.3 situation is not ok at all. Breadcrumbs are not updated during navigation. All I see is the start icon (folder with home) and its all. When I click inside empty space it is replaced with edit text which contains full path to the directory.

Ampersand Bug in Bookmarks view

Amarok 2.7.0 / KDE 4.9.5 / Arch

I've encountered a similiar bug in the bookmarks view (see attached screenshot). The ampersand is replaced by a "_".

Hi, thanks for your report, but can you please open a new bug for it? While the bugs are similar, this one has already been fixed and the code is unrelated. Thanks!
