upload directory using "from local server"

hi guys,

i recently installed gallery2 version 2.2.4.

i have the following directory structure in g2data

/home/myhome/www/g2data/albums
/home/myhome/www/g2data/albums/a1
/home/myhome/www/g2data/albums/a2

i've set my Local Server Upload Paths to: /home/myhome/www/g2data/albums

when trying to upload from local server, gallery was able to find the two directories a1 and a2 under /home/myhome/www/g2data/albums

when i've selected a2 directory and click on add files, instead of adding the files from a2 directory i was brought back to the page where i need to select the server path. it's like caught in the loop and will never add files whenever i tried to add a directory.

if i were to navigate into a2 directory and select all the individual files in there, i'm able to add the files.

any hints how can i add a directory at one go rather than having to navigate into the directory and select all files.
