Crash when moving folder to trash

I can confirm that this always happens on my machine too.

Thanks for your bug. Is that a duplicate of bug #36500? That's not a crash, the folder you are browsing is moved so the window open on it is closed since it would be wrong to keep a window on something non-existant on the disk...

Hi Sebastien,
I think it is a bug because if I run Naultilus using 'sudo' it doesn't
do it. A directory above the deleted directory gets selected
(highlighted). So it means that it behaves differently between user and
sudo. This can't be correct can it?
Cheers, Mike

This was originally reported by me in the ubuntu forums
(see http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=212148&page=3)

I have know this to be an issue since warty, but never thought to report it!!

I have not confirmed this on any other distributions other than Ubuntu.

If there are any other questions you would like to ask me....shoot away!
Ta, Will

Mike, there is no reason for it to behave differently. Are you using browser mode with sudo too or spatial? Do you use dapper or edgy?

Will, the questions are in previous comment, feel free to read a bug when you comment on it :)

I use 'gksudo' of course, not in spatial mode (tree in left pane). I'm
using Dapper.
I think the gksudo result is the correct one, who wants an app to close
just for removing a folder?. It's really annoying.
Another annoyance is not being able to create a folder from the right
pane. Why can't both windows operate the same way? The right click is
different in each pane.

there is no reason it behaves different running with gksudo, that's just another user and that doesn't change the software, it might be than the events notification are not working for that user though, which would mean it's bugged with gksudo.

If you have another annoyance, use another bug, abusing that one makes harder for people who read it to understand what is the issue and to reply. That issue is fixed with edgy

Did you read the previous comments now? Could you comment on if that's a duplicate of bug #36500? And if that's not on what is different?

Point taken about other annoyances Sebastien. Yes it's almost a
duplicate of #36500
Except it works as it should when run with gksudo, i.e. Nautilus doesn't
close unexpectedly.

Cheers, Mike

the "non closing with gksudo" looks like a bug, anyway the topic described isthe same issue than bug #36500, marking as duplicate and that's fixed to edgy
