Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2014-03-11 15:29:48 UTC 
This commit adds a "force-desktop" action to explicitly force the
desktop in the case nautilus is already running when

nautilus --force-desktop

is executed.

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2014-03-11 15:31:39 UTC 
This is needed to work around a bug found on RHEL 7: gnome-session's nautilus racing with gnome-shell activating nautilus for its search provider.

I don't think this commit is strictly necessary upstream, because gnome-shell was changed not to activate all search providers at startup.

Still, doesn't hurt to add.

Review of attachment 271529 [details] [review]:

Looks fine to me - feel free to push if it makes things easier for RHEL, we're eventually going to split the desktop handling into its own binary.
