Bug Description

Hm, strange... Looks like some system restart with opened programs which were still saved in temp.
Reinstalled some nautilus extensions which were installed further but for some days not. Restarted the system. Error report appeared.

Am working on gnome-shell with gnome 3.10 ppas installed. i tried to remove unity from the system a few days ago with sudo apt-get purge unity*
After that i had to reinstall some packages to keep the system running.
