What are you trying to do?
Comment 3 diods 2011-12-13 17:56:59 UTC 
well, actually am not quite sure what i have done that triggered this bug but i remeber doing this :

i issued this command in terminal "sudo nautilus" to be able to edit some application properties that located in "/usr/share/applications" like truecrypt just to edit the command like this "beesu /usr/bin/truecrypt" since am too lazy to open it in terminal, then deleted evolution files located at "~/.local/share/evolution" coz it always cancel fetching mails among other error like file not found, last i checked the log files located at "/var/log/" for errors.

i am all new to linux experience i try to learn from time to time , so if this is not a bug am really sorry to bother you, i tried to do the above once more time but this time nothing happen.

regards.

nautilus does access checks on all directories/files it sees to put up proper icons.  Running nautilus as root is not really supported and I just think we should close this as not a bug.   

diods you can safely ignore this avc.
Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2011-12-13 19:49:35 UTC 
Actually now that I think of this, nautilus is actually checking if the /proc directories are writeable.
Comment 6 diods 2011-12-13 21:00:25 UTC 
good guess about the icon, i did issued "sudo nautilus" in terminal then do a search for i.e "net" and it did notified me with 31 duplicated alert.

will ignore it, thanks for your time.

regards.
