I see, - I never had any of this before upgrading to Intrepid/2.24.1-0

But now it looks like this:

All of the following presumably related bugs are present in
Intrepid's/GNOME's new Nautilus:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audio-convert/+bug/130055
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus-wallpaper/+bug/144208
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus-image-converter/+bug/269213

This also goes for nautilus image-converter:

1. apt-get install nautilus-image-converter
2. Restart Nautilus (still doesn't appear)
3. Reboot machine (still doesn't appear)

Following the advice on
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/audio-convert/+bug/130055 -
which says:

"the user must read
'/usr/share/doc/nautilus-script-audio-convert/README.Debian' and
discover they must run:

'nautilus-script-manager enable ConvertAudioFile'"

..solves the problem with _that_ particular extension/add-on, but the
other add-ons remain absent and essentially renders Nautilus half the
tool it used to be. You cannot resize images, cannot rotate them etc. etc.

All of the scripts normally installable via:

apt-get install nautilus-script-collection-svn

suffer the same problem.
