Binary package hint: nautilus

3) Expected: old file(s) get overwritten by the new ones
4) as soon as the dialogue pops up, asking if I want to merge folder/replace
file, nautilus is crashed - clicking replace does nothing. If I click the x
(close-button) Ubuntu asks me if I want to force-close nautilus (that's what I
normally do in this situation).
This error occurs EVERY TIME!
On askubuntu you can find my detailed description including a video of the bug
and a nautilus-debug-log:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/14290/nautilus-crash-when-merging-overwriting-files
Copied from http://askubuntu.com/questions/14290/nautilus-crash-when-
merging-overwriting-files:
On my Ubuntu 10.10, whenever I want to copy some files/folders over some
other files/folders, or when I try to empty the trash, nautilus crashes!
Example:
I have a folder with some files. Now I want to overwrite this folder with a
folder with the same name, same files, but some additional files, the merge
window comes up, I choose merge and nautilus crashes (does not respond, when I
press the close button I can force close it). Some times it even does the
copying/emptying (trash), but it always crashes!
This happens when copying to the same partition/ntfs
partition/netshares, but not when I make a new folder and copy the
files/folders into that (without overwriting anything). On a netshare,
it's even possible to merge these files afterwards with another
computer!
dmesg/syslog/messages does not show any entry related to that problem.
Does anyone have a solution for this very annoying problem?
EDIT:
dpkg -l nautilus* (see output in pastebin)
EDIT2:
I found out, nautilus already crashes before clicking replace/merge (as soon as
the question appeares. In the video it's not entirely clear, that i click the
cross before the force-close dialog appeares.
