More info: It crashes in my home directory, but not my Downloads or
Desktop directory.

It does not crash when I turn off preview. Opening it with gnome image
viewer from Nautilus crashes gnome image viewer.

But in my Desktop, gnome image viewer will open this file!

Nautilus preview works in Desktop as well.

So, seems to be specific to my home directory!?!

Title:
  Nautilus crashing/freezing when opening folder with svg file

Status in libRSVG - SVG Rendering Library:
  New
Status in “librsvg” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in Debian GNU/Linux:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Strange thing started happening a few days ago: When I access nautilus
  from the Places menu and open my home directory (named eric) nautilus
  always freezes.

  I can open subdirectories and other bookmarks such as Documents,
  Pictures, etc and browse files, but the second I browse to my main
  home directory, nautilus freezes.  I can click any icons for sub-
  folders in my home folder, but nautilus will hang and, within a few
  seconds, turn grey and stay that way.

  The only way to get nautilus to close is by forcing a quit.

  I can access any of the files and folders by CLI, or by using emelFM2.

  After much searching, I found an old bug report at:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librsvg/+bug/30010

  . . . which seemed to blame the crashiness on folders containing an
  svg image.

  Interestingly enough, I was messing around in Inkscape the other day
  trying to create a business card and saved my work into my home folder
  as an svg. As soon as I deleted or moved that file Nautilus no longer
  crashes.
