Package: nautilus Version: 2.20.0-7 Severity: normal
We use NFS-mounted /home directories; the Properties dialog for desktop launchers is broken for us. We see the same behaviour using both NFS3 and NFS4. If you select Properties for a desktop launcher and choose the "Launcher" tab, the dialog closes after a delay of a second or so. All indications are that there is no crash or error per se (no processes die, nothing's written to .xsession-errors), the dialog just closes. The same thing happens to a launcher that's copied from the Desktop folder to the home directory itself, or to a subdirectory under it - you can open a Nautilus browser window to view "Home" (or navigate there via the "Filesystem"), open the Properties dialog for the launcher, select the Launcher tab and the dialog closes. Oddly, this bug does NOT affect NFS mounts in general - as a test I mounted a second instance of server:/home at /mnt using the same mount options and was able to navigate to it and display the launcher's Properties dialog, and select and edit the Launcher tab without any problems. We've also encountered this bug on Ubuntu 8.04, which uses Nautilus 2.22.5.1 (Ubuntu bug #224642), but not under earlier versions (e.g., Ubuntu 6.06, which uses Nautilus 2.14.3). While it's not serious in the greater scheme of things, it is a potential "show stopper" for our NFS client desktops that's blocking their migration to a newer release, be it Debian or Ubuntu.
