Title:
  invalid read (segfault) on duplicate lines in .hidden

Status in Nautilus:
  Unknown
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  opening nautilus and attempting to click on any folders in a folder
  with a .hidden file that has a duplicate entry will consistently crash
  nautilus (also causing desktop icons to disappear).

  i have attached terminal output from when the crash occurs, 2 seperate ones.
  my system locks up (but mouse still moves, music keeps playing) when nautilus is loading, after the 3rd line of terminal output.

  I am not sure if this is worth fixing or not, most people will not run
  into it much.

  Reproduction steps:
  1. create a .hidden file in any directory.
  2. place a filename into the file twice (on separate lines). the filename does not have to exist.
  3. browse to the folder in nautilus and press ctrl+H OR browse to the folder in nautilus and click on another folder, either a subfolder or any other folder
