From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: If I point nautilus to a particular directory, and then open up a terminal and move that directory, and then go back to nautilus and hit the "up" button, then nautilus crashes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.0-7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open up nautilus and go to some directory. 2. Open a terminal and move the same directory. 3. Go back to nautilus and hit the "up" button. Actual Results: Nautilus crashes. Expected Results: I expected it to not crash. Additional info:
nautilus-2.4.0-7 The problem does not occur when moving the directory that nautilus is pointing to, but when moving the parent directory. I don't see a crash, but I see nautilus display an error message and close. The message is "<dir> couldn't be found. Perhaps it has recently been deleted.". This also happens on Debian Sarge with nautilus version 2.4.2-2. This problem is also known upstream. I suggest to follow this bug upstream, and forget it here. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137027
