I have removed the bug I filed that was duped to here and duped to a new one , bug #819109
On FRESH installs I'm still unable to run a root nautilus, and get the same crash
However if I remove deja-dup then a root nautilus opens with no issue, this has been confirmed here on both a fresh install today and several recent live sessions w/ the dailt iso
May want to be considered in resolution here.
