Public bug reported:
When starting nautilus (either via clocking the button or using the terminal)
after startup, nautilus does not start at all.
Starting it via the terminal results in a Timeout error.
I can though see the process in the system monitor.
If I terminate the process via "End process" and then start nautilus again,
the nautilus window appears after around 20 seconds.
I then get the same behavior if I want to save a file from within an
application.
E.g. if I click "save file to" within inkscape, it will take around 20s until
the file manager window open.
I purged nautilus and reinstalled it already, but it did not help.
I also followed a stackoverflow answer, saying that you have to
sudo apt-get purge xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
Right after I did that, nautilus was starting immediately.
But after a reboot the effect was gone and I was back with the old problem.
Suuuuper annoying.
