Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
Steps to reproduce (in Jaunty):
open a nautilus window
gconftool --dump /apps/nautilus > /tmp/nautilus.dump
gconftool --load /tmp/nautilus.dump
Result:
Window closes, Icons of mounted drivers disappear. Entry in syslog states
"nautilus: segfault at ... error 4 in libgobject-2.0.so.0.2000.1"
This is new with jaunty, it did not happen with hardy (did not try
intrepid).
This may be a rather special problem, but I need it for our live CD project,
which allows users to store and retrieve personal settings from/to removable
media.
Closing nautilus with "nautilus -q" before loading the dump and starting it
afterwards with "nautilus -n" helps avoid the segfault, of course.
Unfortunately, the newly spawned nautilus keeps open the mountpoint of the
removable drive forever, so that it cannot be unmounted anymore.
** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
