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:/
. . . 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.
