[Bug 875693] [NEW] Nautilus crashes when trying to access /usr/share as root.

 

Public bug reported:

This happens when running Nautilus from a terminal as root using `gksu nautilus` in Ubuntu 11.10.
When I go to /usr, nothing odd happens yet, but from the moment I try to open the share folder inside it (/usr/share), no matter if I use enter or double-click on the folder, Nautilus crashes.
Command line output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/709613/
