[Bug 247644] Re: Nautilus crashes on symlink loops
the previous comment is misleading, if nautilus crashes you will get a .crash otherwise open a bug with a correct topic saying what the issue is exactly if that's not a crash! -- Nautilus crashes on symlink loops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

The answer to your question is: bureaucratic deadlock. Nobody cares that there's enough info to easily reproduce the bug, it's about following rules lol and if you don't like that you're likely get a bunch of bafflegab in return about following rules (read above). -- Nautilus crashes on symlink loops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I can confirm the bug is still present in Karmic and I add that when Nautilus crashes in this context, it does not create a crash file in /var/crash.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a '.crash' file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit. If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding. ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) Status: New => Invalid -- Nautilus crashes on symlink loops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247644 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 247644] Re: Nautilus crashes on symlink loops
** Description changed: Binary package hint: nautilus I have a directory in which I created a symlink loop (to test a script I'm working on for finding and cleaning up duplicate files). Today I (accidentally) opened this directory with nautilus, causing it to crash trying to resolve the symlinks. I would have expected Nautilus to be able to detect the loop and display the links as broken symlinks.
