Public bug reported:

>From time to time, these two bugs resurface, which were fixed ages ago:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1130722
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1731985

and also: the font type and/or size in Nautilus changes to a smaller and
less readable font.


The three things always reappear at once.

Then everything goes back to expected; I'm not sure if that's when I get
some new updates installed or when I just reboot.

It seems to me that all these issues are things that got changed
upstream in Nautilus, but patched in Ubuntu because Ubuntu maintainers
have some more common sense than the Nautilus developers.

I don't know if 
(a) sometimes someone forgets to apply some patches, and an unpatched version 
slips into Ubuntu's packages until somebody corrects it, or
(b) some configuration gets randomly lost/changed and then restored/changed 
back on reboot.

Either way, it's f***ing annoying.
