RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

The nautilus desktop crashes when a users right clicks on an image that is stored on the desktop and selects properties.
The first time, the icons on the desktop are gone and come back after a second or so. The second time, the entire desktop session crashes.

This looks similar to the bug reported in the ubuntu bug tracker:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exempi/+bug/330557
According to that report, it should be fixed in 2.1.1, so it may still be another bug.

2. Copy a png or jpg file to your ~/Desktop
3. Right-click the file and select properties

Actual results:
GNOME session crashes after doing it twice
Expected results:
Dialog that shows the properties of the image.

Thanks Nikola for the patch, it looks good. We have a similar fix upstream.
Regarding 7.4, it depends on product management approval. I'm happy to apply patch + build if you manage to convince product management.
