[GNOME3] Nautilus hangs on right-click > properties
Last modified: 2011-05-07 13:08:04 UTC
Using GNOME 3 from GNOME_STABLE_3.0 repository Upgraded using the Text method at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:GNOME_3.0 Nautilus hangs when right-clicking and choosing properties of any file or folder, regardless of file content, size, or number of objects in a folder iznogood in #opensuse-gnome IRC reported the same issue and identified that removing nautilus-extension-tracker-tags appears to workaround the issue I can confirm that removing this package appears to be a valid workaround, but there probably needs to be a better fix for this bug.
I might add that when run from terminal one get these errormsg: (nautilus:17857): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: specified class size for type `TrackerTagsView' is smaller than the parent type's `GtkVBox' class size (nautilus:17857): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed
$ ldd /usr/lib/nautilus/extensions-3.0/libnautilus-tracker-tags.so [snip] libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (0xb7254000) [snip] I guess this is why the tracker extension stuck.
Confirmed that it caused by the wrong lib linking and found an upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645954
JFYI, the tracker patch has been included in GNOME:Apps. I think it'll be in GNOME:STABLE:3.0 soon.
This is now in Gnome:stable:3.0, resolving this bug.
