Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

This happens on my Karmic installation (amd64) when I install all latest
upgrades.

On the desktop, the plain dot-desktop-files are shown instead of the
usual application launchers with icons. If you doubleclick on them, the
respective .desktop-file is opened with Gedit.

This seems to be some Nautilus problem, since Nautilus in file manager
mode likewise doesn't work as exspected. Folders are treated normally,
but all files regardless of their content are considered as plain text
files, for example if you doubleclick on a video file, Gedit will try to
open it!

Other file managers, such as Thunar, seem to work as usual.

For my Karmic installation this morning I used the 9.10-Beta-Image and
this bug occured when I installed all recent updates, not before. So
some upload between Beta release and now must have caused the problem.

Kind regards,
Jan
