Description:
Description of Problem:
open applications:/// and do 'rm -rf ~/.gnome2/vfolders' and you get a
crash. This is with the latest build from orph's vfs-rewrite branch, so
I'll cc: him when this is submitted.  Note that I had a
.gnome2/vfolder/applications/ folder, it wasn't empty.

AlexG, Dave?
Comment 2 Alex Graveley 2002-08-08 05:58:21 UTC 
I can't duplicate, but I think I fixed it in CVS. Can you please try
this again?
Comment 3 Luis Villa 2002-08-08 14:04:40 UTC 
With CVS everything from this morning's 4am build, I get this exact
same stack trace on trying to create a new launcher from nautilus's
right-click 'new launcher' menu item.
Comment 4 Luis Villa 2002-08-10 21:57:16 UTC 
AlexG: I can't duplicate this anymore; I still get the problem with
the right-click 'new launcher' but I'll file that separately. Please
feel free to close.
Comment 5 Alex Graveley 2002-08-12 13:19:29 UTC 
Ya, I don't think the 'new launcher' bug is related to this anyways. 
Closing.
Comment 6 Luis Villa 2002-08-15 21:27:35 UTC 
Exciting. Getting same trace again when testing this today.
Comment 7 Luis Villa 2002-08-15 21:34:41 UTC 
Note that I also get this exact trace when editing a pre-existing
.desktop file.
Comment 8 Luis Villa 2002-08-15 21:36:26 UTC 
Note that in the later case the rename is complete when nautilus
restarts.
Comment 9 Luis Villa 2002-08-16 17:19:59 UTC 
Yay. Finally fixed with latest merge.
