Something is fundamentally not working here. I'm just trying to
change the desktop background picture.
I go into Settings > Desktop. The "Background" tab is open by default.
The "Folder" dropdown list offers several predefined locations. I
pick "Other", and a file selection dialog opens, showing the contents
of "/usr/share".
But every file and subdirectory of "/usr/share" is grayed out and
disabled. I can't actually browse the filesystem. The dialog is dead.
The only thing I can do here is pick from one of the preselected
directory locations on the left, like "Desktop", "Documents",
"Music", etc. Each one opens the corresponding directory, but that's
it. Every file and subdirectory is grayed out and disabled.
I'm seeing this on two separate laptops that were upgraded to F26.
What the heck is going on?
Same on F25.
