Package: nautilus
Version: 3.4.2-1+build1
Severity: important
For reproducing the problem :
-Go in gnome tweak-tool
-Activate "handling the desktop file manager"
-Try opening one directory who is not on the desktop, or the application itself
-During 20 s , "Opening .... " is displayed
If you disable this option "Handle desktop..", this should be fine but
sometimes it may be slow too...
If you click on a folder on the desktop, it may be fine too.
I don't know if it's a Nautilus problem or a Gnome-tweak-tool problem
Sorry for my English, i'm French
In some forums , they speak about python?
