Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

I've just upgraded to hardy and rebooted. When I log in to Gnome, a Nautilus window flashes up and quickly disappears about ten times. There are no icons on the desktop. When I try to start Nautilus from the terminal I get:

mbp@grace% nautilus
Initializing gnome-mount extension
seahorse nautilus module initialized
nautilus: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-1.0/libgnome-mount.so: undefined symbol: nautilus_file_info_get_drive
zsh: exit 127 nautilus

I did previously have the gnome-mount applet on my panel; I'm not sure if that's related. After removing it I still get the same error.

Thank you for your bug. The hardy nautilus version is 2.21.90 any reason you don't use this one? Could you try to upgrade and note if nautilus works correctly?

I apt-get installed nautilus manually and got 1:2.21.90-0ubuntu3, which seems to work correctly.

I'm not sure why I had the other version, it was just what got installed after upgrading from hardy. I have mirror.internode.on.net in my sources.list as well as archive.u.c, and it may be there was some strangeness there.

did installing nautilus removed some other package? that's likely due to nautilus using breaks on packages that need to be updated and apt doesn't handling it correctly

Yes - when I did the first apt-get update, it actually removed
nautilus! Then I specifically installed nautilus and now it's ok.
