Ok, it seems your debugger is not installed. Please follow the instructions given in another nautilus reported bug: "Looks like a livelock. Please install nautilus-dbg and gvfs-dbg, and obtain a gdb backtrace of the locked process. See http://wiki.debian.org/HowToGetABacktrace for more information." In addition, please reply to the bug report address and not directly to me (I am subscribed to this bug) since otherwise the maintainers of the package will not see any of your replies since they are held out of the bug tracking system.
