I have the nautilus folder in /root/.config. I do not get "The owner could not be changed. Sorry, could not change the owner of "Folder Name" Specified owner 'Owner of file' doesn't exist". This shows for a second then nautilus crashes with "** ERROR:nautilus-properties-window.c:1839:schedule_owner_change_timeout: assertion failed: (NAUTILUS_IS_FILE (file))" at all. When it crashes I get "Unhandled error message: Error when getting information for file '/home/chris/nautilus': No such file or directory". What I get is in the attachment. Also when running apport-retrace with the -s option I get:

chris@localhost:/var/crash$ sudo apport-retrace -s /var/crash/_usr_bin_nautilus.0.crash
ERROR: report file does not contain one of the required fields: CoreDump DistroRelease Package ExecutablePath

I'm getting a bit lost here to say the least

When attempting to generate the backtrace as shown here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace and running these steps:

gdb <program> 2>&1 | tee ~/gdb-<program>.txt
(gdb) handle SIG33 pass nostop noprint
(gdb) set pagination 0
(gdb) run <arguments, if any>

The program will start. Perform any actions necessary to reproduce the crash. If the program hangs but doesn't crash you can press ctrl+c in gdb while the program is frozen and then continue with the next step.

Nautilus will hang and so will gdb. I can't CTRL>C to stop nautilus.

I'm probably doing something incorrect however I can't figure it out.
