Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
ln -s an exe file to desktop causes Nautilus to go to die/restart loop
1. Download Windows application (e.g. HeidiSQL)
2. Install it
3. Try to symlink primary EXE to your Desktop folder
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/HeidiSQL# ln -s
heidisql.exe ~/Desktop
After this desktop icons are lost and
A) Nautilus starts nuking out with apport crash dialogs
or
B) Nautilus starts restarting itself and (re)opening file browser
windows
The only way to fix the problem is to get to the console and remove the
symbol link using rm.
** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
