Package: nautilus
Version: 3.22.3-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
This bug is present from boot accross all logins on both the systems I
currently have at 'Stretch'.
After double clicking a folder on the Gnome Desktop with desktop icons enabled,
nothing happens. This began happening after an upgrade.
Nautilus runs as a file browser absolutely fine when:
* Running it from a shell
* Right clicking on a folder icon and selecting "Open With Other Application"
then selecting "Files" in the application chooser.
I does not open when:
* Double clicking a folder on the desktop
* Right clicking a folder and selecting "Open"
