Title:
  Nautilus produces error dialogs in an infinite loop

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  To reproduce the problem,

  1) Create a symbolic link to a folder that contains a subfolder:
      mkdir -p a/b
      ln -s a c
  2) Open Nautilus to the subfolder through the symbolic link:
      nautilus c/b
  3) Remove the original subfolder and its parent:
      rm -r a

  As expected, Nautilus displays an error dialog with the message "Could
  not display '/home/user/c'. The location is not a folder."

  Unexpectedly, Nautilus continues to open duplicate error dialogs in an
  infinite loop, causing the computer to quickly become unresponsive. A
  screenshot of this is attached.
