nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV in sort_column_changed_callback()

[Ben Moudry]

Nautilus crashed when I attempted to search an NTFS partition.

TEST CASE:
1) Switch Nautilus to List or Compact view
2) Open Search
3) Search for any string

Result: Nautilus segfaults

Note, that Icons view works correctly

Thank you for your bug report, what did you do exactly to get the bug? Does it happen every time?

[Ben Moudry (benm-l)]

Nautilus crashes when I do the following:

1. Click the "Home Folder" icon on the launcher.
2. Choose an NTFS partition on the left sidebar (in this case the partition is labeled "Common", a partition I setup to allow easy transfer of files between my operating systems)
3. Click "Search" in the upper right-hand corner of the nautilus window
4. Fill in a search string (in this case I used *.sql)
5. Press enter on the keyboard

At this point nautilus crashes. It crashes each time I follow these steps.

Is there anything else I can provide to help?

Thank you for looking into it. I'm not very experienced in reporting bugs but would like to help out if I can.

Confirmed on 3.3.5-0ubuntu2 also

thanks, it's likely the same bug than bug #927138
