Workaround here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591606

I'll describe how to reproduce it on my Ubuntu 9.04 32-bit (fully updated to
latest version).

The problem is in the file '$HOME/.local/share/mime/mime.cache' (I think it's
corrupted. I've attached above this post a strace dump file and a corrupted
mime.cache file as a tar.gz directory).

Steps to reproduce it:

1) Backup your '.local/' dir

$ mv $HOME/.local/ $HOME/.local_bkp/

2) Create a NEW '.local/' dir
$ mkdir $HOME/.local/; mkdir $HOME/.local/share; mkdir $HOME/.local/share/mime/

3) Copy corrupted 'mime.cache' attached in this post to the NEW dir.
$ cp bug_591606/mime.cache $HOME/.local/share/mime/

4) Launch program linked against libgio (i.e. nautilus)
$ nautilus

5) Enjoy your Segmentation Fault ;)

Steps to workaround:

1) Move '$HOME/.local/share/mime/mime.cache' file to a temporary dir just to
backup it
$ mv $HOME/.local/share/mime/mime.cache $HOME/<temporary_dir>

2) Launch nautilus to test it
$ nautilus

That's all folks!

PD: Anyway, can anybody confirm this bug? Please!
