backtrace from abrt
I think you're seeing a crash in nautilus_file_peek_display_name() though it's not obvious from the backtrace. Please install debuginfo packages next time :-) That's bug 664679. We still didn't have luck in reproducing this issue. Some people report crazy steps but it never really worked on my machine. Upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=602500 Workaround committed upstream, going to include it in RHEL6 as well.
Potential steps leading to reproducer:
1. for i in `seq 1 8`; do dd if=/dev/zero of=file${i} bs=1M count=400; done
2. run nautilus --browser
3. switch left pane to Informations
4. Ctrl+A, Shift+Delete
5. press left arrow or randomly select some files, that could trigger the crash. Hit rate is awfully low though.
