[Bug 904239] Re: nautilus can not open. Could not register the application: Method `DescribeAll' returned type `(a(savbav))', but expected `(a{s(bgav)})'

 

Worked yesterday, after reboot just now run Nautilus from launcher, but it doesn't start.
Terminal output:
~$ nautilus
Could not register the application: Method `DescribeAll' returned type `(a(savbav))', but expected `(a{s(bgav)})

Workaround kill nautilus and restart opens Nautilus without complains.
$ ps aux | grep nautilus
