Title:
  Nautilus crashes when accessing home folder shortcuts which are
  semantic links

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've mapped ~/Documents, ~/Pictures etc. to another harddrive (NTFS);
  /media/500GB/Documents, /media/500GB/Pictures etc. (Or actually
  ~/Dokumenter, ~/Bilder, etc. since I'm using the norwegian version of
  Ubuntu). /media/500GB is set up to automount on boot, and lets me
  conveniently share my home folders with the Windows 7 installation I'm
  dual booting with. Haven't symbolically linked my Windows 7 home
  folders to that disk yet though, I don't really use it ;)

  When I open a Nautilus window, I can browse around folders (as I
  always enjoy doing when I've got some spare time) with no problems. I
  can browse to /media/500GB and its subfolders as well. However, if I
  click the "Documents" shortcut (or "Pictures" etc.) from the Computer
  section (not the Bookmarks section), Nautilus just closes down (I
  assume it's some form of a crash).

  Edit: It also happens when I try to open the semantic links by double-
  clicking or pressing enter on them, so it's probably not got to do
  with the menu itself. Still works through the terminal though, so the
  semantic links themselves are working.

  It worked earlier, so I don't know what's changed.
