Description Panormitis Petrou 2015-11-17 20:05:53 UTC

Description of problem:
If I open Nautilus and go to delete my Trash directory (eg: .Trash-1000), Nautilus will crash immediately.
If I start Nautilus from a terminal, when it crashes the following error occurs:
*** Error in `nautilus': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x00007ffa08001c00 ***
Sometimes the error is different:
*** Error in `nautilus': malloc(): memory corruption (fast): 0x00007fb220004f60 ***

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
This started happening in Fedora 23, the system is fully updated.

How reproducible:
I can always reproduce this bug if I delete the Trash directory. Sometimes (but not always) Nautilus also crashes if I create a hidden directory and delete it.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Nautilus and delete a file or directory you don't need.
2. Press CTRL+H to view hidden files & directories.
3. Find your Trash directory, it should be named .Trash-1000 (or something similar depending your user ID).
4. Select your Trash directory and press Delete on your keyboard to delete it.
5. Nautilus crashed and the Trash directory isn't deleted.

Actual results:
Nautilus crashes and the directory isn't deleted.

Expected results:
Nautilus shouldn't crash.

Additional info:
This bug appeared in Fedora 23. In the past Nautilus worked fine.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 13:31:34 UTC

This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2016-12-20 16:01:37 UTC

Fedora 23 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-12-20. Fedora 23 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
