Are you still capable of recreating this problem?

I am not capable of recreating it.

Things have actually become worse, I installed a few ports including kde+all and available upgrades, and nautilus now just crashes indefinitely (as it is automatically restarted)

the problem is not necessarily in nautilus itself, because if I start it from windowmaker, it works well, while only displaying default blank icons. Preferences still crashes.

Ok, nautilus does not crash anymore, maybe because I installed shared-mime-info ?

But Preferences still crash.

[rhwood@…]

have you tried forcibly uninstalling nautilus, running clean --all against it and reinstalling?

I am wondering if it is trying to load a library against a slightly different version than is currently on your system.

[yves@…]

Ok, I found the problem is in i18n stuff. If I disable my LANG env, it works well.

Here is what happens:

(nautilus-file-management-properties:2684): Eel-CRITICAL : eel_strdup_strftime: assertion `converted != NULL' failed

(nautilus-file-management-properties:2684): Gtk-CRITICAL : gtk_accel_label_new: assertion `string != NULL' failed

[markd@…]

Does Nautilus 2.14.3 fix the problem?

[yves@…]

I don't have gnome installed anymore ...

[rhwood@…]

I have never been able t oduplicate the error.
