Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

I was accessing a remote SFTP folder. It was taking a long time to browse, but it was working quite well until Nautilus finally crashed.

After the crash, I was able to access the SFTP folder again.

Thanks for your bug report. The crash looks like a memory corruption. Could you try to get a valgrind log for it (you can follow the instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind for that)?

Ok, I've been spending about 10 minutes trying to reproduce the bug with Valgrind, but no luck.

The bug seemed quite random, but I access this SFTP folder daily, so if I can reproduce the bug again with Valgrind I'll update this report or, if you close this one, send another one.

Thanks.

Uh. 7 years have passed and this bug is still showing up. GNOME developers should clean up their GVFS code base because it's a wreck.
