nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV (due to librsvg)

[Romano Giannetti]

Binary package hint: nautilus

I know this is not a new bug; it's here since two year. I am reporting it as a new one hoping to help to solve it with a trace.

Main bug is bug #305546, assigned to librsvg. But in my opinion, the bug is sŧill *also* a bug for nautilus, because it *crashes*.

Simply drop the (attached) file organigrama.svg in whatever directory, and trying to open the directory in nautilus will crash it. Drop it into your ~/Desktop folder, and you'll have a nice catch-22.

Now I attach the file. Extact it and see nautilus explode (by the way, the same crash happens in whatever try to preview the file, for example, the browse window of firefox).

...so, I think that, given that librsvg is broken since two year, a workaround is badly needed. As disabling preview for svg file thru all the GTK widgets and nautilus.
