Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
To reproduce the problem,
1) Create a symbolic link to a folder that contains a subfolder:
mkdir -p a/b
ln -s a c
2) Open Nautilus to the subfolder through the symbolic link:
nautilus c/b
3) Remove the original subfolder and its parent:
rm -r a
As expected, Nautilus displays an error dialog with the message "Could
not display '/home/user/c'. The location is not a folder."
Unexpectedly, Nautilus continues to open duplicate error dialogs in an
infinite loop, causing the computer to quickly become unresponsive. A
screenshot of this is attached.
