** Description changed: + After using 'upgrade-manager -d" to Intrepid, something during the + upgrade prosses unintentionally hijacked our configurations to launch + various programs in-place of nautilus for opening folders from the + places menu. - Since my upgrade to Intrepid, every time I select 'Home folder' from the - Places menu, I get a gthum window instead of the usual Nautilus one. + I do not believe that the package 'gnome-panel' is necessarily at fault, + but don't have a clue where the root cause is as I don't understand how + the places menu works, however Tuomas Aavikko's workaround gave me + success in fixing the issue: + + Right click on a folder in nautilus ->Open with app-> File Manager + + Now I can open my home folder from the places menu again. So it seems + that there is a file extension for folders that is being hijacked by the + installation / upgrade of other packages such as VLC, gthumb, totem, + amarok, kaffeine, Konqueror, Archiver Manager. (compiled from comments + and duplicate of this bug.)
