Title:
Nautilus can't move files (at least images) in a stable way
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Like people said in this report :
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1133477
Nautilus is unstable when moving files.
This is a severe critical bug on a modern desktop and the joke is that
the bug hasn't been assigned since 3 years and the importance is
"undecided"!!
So I will help you : the importance is "CRITICAL" and the bug must be
assigned as soon as possible!
The bug is easily reproducible, cut a folder with 1000 images and
paste it in another destination.
I got two kind of results :
1) Nautilus displays a popup saying that it is preparing the move, but the
popup progression is stuck and after minutes nothing happens. After killing
Nautilus I found that some files has been moved, at the speed of a 1990
computer while my computer is recent and fast.
2) (another day) Cut/Paste two images folders from a Nautilus tab to another
tab : the whole Unity desktop has crashed. I had to turn off computer with
hardware button, loosing unsaved data. After reboot I saw that the images was
moved.
I can't imagine to use a desktop unstable when moving files, this is a
sooooooo basic feature! Will you consider this issue seriously?
