[Bug 1512164] [NEW] Naming or renaming folder often crashes Nautilus

 

Public bug reported:

In the last 2 Ubuntu versions I had this problem: naming or renaming
folders crashed nautilus. It happened twice this evening, sometimes I
only see this once in a few days, other times, more times a day if I
work more intensive with files and folders. First it darkens the
Nautilus windows (I usually have 2-3 when working with files - moving,
copying - pictures mainly) and then it crashes, closing all windows. It
happened many times when creating new folders and trying to name them,
after I write the new name and press ENTER; after crash, the folders are
created, but they have the default name (Untitled Folder).
