Thanks for your report, the bug isn't clear for me, what do you exactly did? selected the file and then moved it?

[Basilio Kublik (sourcercito)]

i was unable to reproduce the crash, is this reproducible with a newly created user on your machine?.

[Young-Ho Cha (ganadist-gmail)]

It seems this bug is related with #146356.

I can reproduce this in newly create user via follow steps.

1. download sample files from http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9705963/testdir.tgz

2. open a shell and extract tarball on some directory and change directory called "testdir"

3. run zenity --file-selection in directory

4. click a volume icon on filechooser to change directory. and press ^L and type directory name to return "testdir"
(These steps are same that reproduce bug #146356)

5. open another terminal and change directory to "testdir", and delete .directory file.
