[Linux Editor] File System case sensitivity problem

Linux

-

https://forum.unity.com/threads/file-system-case-sensitivity-problem.484919/

Hello,

I'm running unity 2017.1.0xf3Linux (amd64) in debian with an ext4 file system.

I have tracked an error causing unity to be unable to list projects on disk and unable to open projects when you have base folder with different character case.

Example:

I have my unity projects in /home/brunoramos/code

Everything work ok.

If I create /home/brunoramos/Code (with an upper case C) unity will no longer find the projects.
Trying to manually Open a project browsing to /home/brunoramos/code/myproject will also not work, and will make unity complain about window layout issues misleading the user.

If I delete /home/brunoramos/Code everything stars working again.

I think somewhere in unity's internals there is a problem with the way characters case is managed.

Please let me know if you need more details, or if you cannot reproduce the problem.

Regards,

Bruno
