Public bug reported: I have Ubuntu 13.10 with nautilus version 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu2.2 and gnuplot candidate version 4.6.3-2.
Nautilus crashes when viewing a directory containing a file to which gnuplot is sending output. To replicate, do the following: 1. Open Nautilus and go to some directory, e.g. "~/temp". 2. Start gnuplot. Enter the following command: set output "~/temp/blah.svg" 3. I expect Nautilus to show the newly created file "blah.svg", which it briefly does. Then it crashes. It also crashes if you try to look at the folder later after closing gnuplot. I've attached the valgrind output of nautilus. On my system, it output the following to the terminal: Initializing nautilus-dropbox 1.4.0 sys:1: Warning: g_object_set: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed Nautilus-Share-Message: Called "net usershare info" but it failed: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares.
