FSlint 4.44 - Select don't work

[pixelb]

Original issue 95 created by pixelb on 2014-04-23T10:58:32.000Z:

I found the duplicates and I wanted to select them within groups. All options in 'select within groups' doesn't work. For example, if I select the files within groups 'select all but oldest' - all selected and not deleted by pressing 'delete'.

• Defect is in FSlint 4.44 and in SVN
• FSlint 2.42 works ok

I use Ubuntu 14.04

What happens when you "select all but oldest" exactly?

If I press "select all but oldest" it select all files. The same happens when I press "select all but newest". And then, when I press "delete" it happens nothing. When I press "unselect all" it happens nothing to.

I experience the same problem. Here's the terminal output:

Traceback (most recent call last):

How was this resolved? It's still open for Ubuntu as https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fslint/+bug/1529700 and I wonder if there's a patch I can cherry-pick.

Ah I missed the # in the commit message to tie this to commit b3a64bb
I'll do a release in a week or so anyway so you don't have to bother

Thanks for FSlint. (no sarcasm)

Same problem here.
Checked backup drive for duplicates, selected "all but newest", hit "delete".

Nothing happens. :-(

Can this be fixed? Is there a workaround?

UPDATE: I am referring to 2.44-2 - the version shipped with the newest (!) Linux Mint.

Just downloaded 2.47 from here.

Current version works fine. No idea why Mint resp. Ubuntu has the outdated version.
Can be closed, thanks
