Note that nautilus in its entirety does not crash. nautilus windows will function normally.
However, the desktop becomes nonfunctional (all icons disappear and the desktop does not respond to the mouse). ** Attachment added: "Backtrace" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus-dropbox/+bug/1633826/+attachment/4770985/+files/gdb-nautilus.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1633826 Title: nautilus desktop crashes when called with --no-desktop Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in nautilus-dropbox package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When calling nautilus with the --no-desktop flag in Ubuntu 16.10, the existing desktop crashes with the following error: (nautilus:3723): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport: assertion 'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed (nautilus:3723): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport: assertion 'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed This is relevant since e.g. the Dropbox indicator calls nautilus this way, resulting in the desktop crashing.
