Description Luis Villa 2002-08-15 21:19:32 UTC

With latest CVS of this morning, I create a launcher in applications: and
both nautilus and the panel crash immediately. I can duplicate and attach
stack traces if you want. Note that when nautilus comes back up the
launcher has been created.

(Here's one trace; it appears that I get a couple different traces so maybe
some kind of race condition is going on.)

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

Is this still occuring with the latest snaps from friday?

Comment 2 Luis Villa 2002-08-18 20:32:08 UTC

Works like a charm, Alex.

Comment 3 prabhut 2002-09-02 16:19:59 UTC

Tested with sun beta 2 build 4 package. Problem exists when try to 
create new launcher in Nautilus 'applications:///' it is not creating 
the new launcher.

Can we reopen the bug please.

Comment 4 Luis Villa 2002-09-03 21:09:20 UTC

That's a completely separate bug; please file it as such and make it
depend on bug 86322.
