If you are still trying to figure out which package did it, please do not
immediately point the finger of blame to Nautilus. Is it not more likely that
the file system failure caused Nautilus to behave erratically as well? AFAIK
Nautilus is not run SETUID root, so there is no way it can screw up your
partition table.
If you want to be completely safe, turn off Nautilus' Medusa disk-indexing.
Many of us have followed Nautilus' evolution and me personally, my only
complain with Nautilus is the amount of resource it consumes, and that is
being steadily improved on.
