photon file manager

Hi,
There is a problem with pfm in QNX RTP 6.1A. If photon is launched by ph script and when current
working directory (PWD var on the moment of photon start) is removed in Photon later, pfm crashes.
I inspected my files under /usr/share/locale/ru in text console. Then I launched photon and removed
Midnight Commander by pkg-installer. Then I launch pfm and get the message box Error: Directory ‘’,
not found [continue]. But pfm fails on any next action. Is this knowen issue? BTW, pterm prints
“/bin/sh: Cannot determine current working directory” and continue to work. To reproduce situation:

  1. login in text console
  2. mkdir /tmp/dddd
  3. cd /tmp/dddd
  4. ph
  5. Launch “File Manager” and delete ‘dddd’ directory, exit pfm
  6. Launch “File Manager” second time, done.
    Here is result for ‘coreinfo pfm.core’
    ==================

Hello Eduard

I have submitted a bug against both pfm and shell. Thanks for the report
