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.
