** Description changed:

  Strange thing started happening a few days ago: When I access nautilus
  from the Places menu and open my home directory (named eric) nautilus
  always freezes.
  
  I can open subdirectories and other bookmarks such as Documents,
  Pictures, etc and browse files, but the second I browse to my main home
  directory, nautilus freezes.  I can click any icons for sub-folders in
  my home folder, but nautilus will hang and, within a few seconds, turn
  grey and stay that way.
  
  The only way to get nautilus to close is by forcing a quit.
  
  I can access any of the files and folders by CLI, or by using emelFM2.
+ 
+ After much searching, I found an old bug report at:
+ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librsvg/+bug/30010
+ 
+ . . . which seemed to blame the crashiness on folders containing an svg
+ image.
+ 
+ Interestingly enough, I was messing around in Inkscape the other day
+ trying to create a business card and saved my work into my home folder
+ as an svg. As soon as I deleted or moved that file Nautilus no longer
+ crashes.
