Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
On several occasions nautilus has crashed on me (and restarted) when I did the following:
1. With one nautilus browser window open, select 'copy' on a file from a Samba drive.
2. Browse to another folder (in this case an external USB drive), and select 'paste'.
3. While the file is copying, close the (only) nautilus browser window.
It should close the browser window but continue the copy. But instead, it sometimes crashes: first the browser window closes, then the copy status indicator window stops updating its percent complete, then nautilus disappears completely, including the copy status indicator window and desktop icons. Shortly afterwards it restarts, but the file has not been copied (it is left in an incomplete state on the target device).
This is on Hardy alpha 4 with all updates to 22 Feb, kernel 2.6.24-8-generic, nautilus 1:2.21.91-0ubuntu3.
I tried attaching gdb to nautilus to get a backtrace, but while it's attached, nautilus does not respond to input (it won't open a browser window, or if one is open, it won't let you do anything - it just greys out) until gdb detaches.
