Nautilus needs to be insulated from thumbnailers crashing the entire system.
As it is now, and has been for at least four or five releases, I can easily drag down my entire desktop file browser via an SVG thumbnail or video codec thumbnail. Medium seems like a low priority given that these sorts of bugs completely prevent Nautilus from starting up - or worse - if the file is located on the audience member's desktop. It results in a system that is unrecoverable in terms of browsing a system, searching for files, etc. Is there a way of preventing a thumbnailer from crashing Nautilus? It would seem more logical to patch Nautilus at the source and have a generic icon displayed instead of having the entire system get stuck in a loop of crashing. -- Crash when thumbnailing an SVG file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/438484 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
