Permit to send to removable media

Hi Guimenez, thanks for your report. Your idea makes sense, yeah, especially when we note that's how it works in Windows, IIRC.

But in GNOME, that feature's idea is a bit different. By design, that menu should work only for sending files to someone else. This is the package's description:

 "The Nautilus Send To plugin provides the Nautilus file manager with a context
 menu component for quickly sending files to accounts in an Evolution email
 address book, contacts on a Pidgin instant messaging list, or through Claws
 Mail (formerly Sylpheed Claws)."

Currently, people already know that this feature is used to send files to their contacts and it's probably all we want there.

In any case, this seems like a "upstream wishlist" bug.

I changed the description to something meaningful

this has been fixed upstream now, thanks for reporting.

This bug was fixed in the package nautilus-sendto - 1.1.2-0ubuntu1

---------------
nautilus-sendto (1.1.2-0ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * New upstream release (LP: #334067):
    - Add an evolution plugin to allow sending arbitrary attachments
      through nautilus-sendto
    - Add a "Removable devices" plugin (LP: #163752)

    - Remove the separate mailer plugins, and use the default
      GNOME mailer instead
    - Fix no plugins being able to send files (oops)

    - Make it possible for plugins to support sending directories
    - Support the "Pecan" Pidgin MSN plugin
    - Fix a few memory leaks
  * debian/control.in:
