Could you attach a stacktrace of the crash? Without it we have to
little information to fix the problem.
The easiest way to do this, is to install bugbuddy.

I was unable to reproduce this with 2.1.3, compiled with garnome
(hacking-0.19.1)
Comment 2 nahoo82 2002-12-03 15:00:24 UTC
I also have ganome hacking-0.19.1, with Debian gcc-3.2, the backtrace is:

Backtrace was generated from '/usr/local/garnome/bin/nautilus'

Comment 3 Damon Brinkley 2002-12-03 15:07:25 UTC
I'm unable to reproduce this in 2.1.1 compiled with garnome 0.18.3.  I
get the expected result which is a prompt to overwrite or skip.
