Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus-sendto

Right clicking on a file, then send to, causes nautilus-sendto to crash.

~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release: 10.04

~$ apt-cache policy nautilus-sendto

After killing nautilus and relaunching from terminal, this is what i get when "sendto-ing" (apparently it didn't crash anymore, but nothing happened):

When run under valgrind, the program doesn't crash and the sendto window pops up normally. Instead trying to launch it normally makes it crash again.

However I have attached the valgrind log.

thank you for the valgrind, could you get a new log with nautilus-sendto-dbgsym installed?

well, this error happened to me when I removed empathy.. there is a package in empathy related with nautilus. this package is called nautilus-sendto-empathy , and the problem occurred when I removed it.

thank for your comment gero but are you sure you are getting the same issue? the one there is in evolution code not empathy one, you might want to open a new bug about your issue...

well I am not quite sure about what you mean, but I can tell you this, sendto was working fine, I used it just a minute before I removed the empathy, then I removed empathy and sendto stopped working, next I re-installed empathy and sendto began to work correctly.

i wish i could help more...

I have found that nautilus-sendto is crashing on my PC. Looking at 'dmesg' output shows the following results from three tries:

</pre>

Does this look like the same problem or should I file another bug report?

thanks,

Segfault.txt Edit (1.1 KiB, text/plain)

I caught almost the same bug as described in this report. I had removed evolution in favor of thunderbird, and after launching `nautilus-sendto <somefile>` it segfaulted with the following message (see attachment).

Luckily, installing the package "evolution-data-server" back, somehow made it work properly. Hope this info be helpful.

Happened today for the first time for me in Oneiric by right-clicking on a doc, going to the "send to..." dialog.

I'm just a regular user and this is my first post.

Since a clean LMDE 64bit install a few days ago I'm unable to use nautilus-sendto. It simply doesn't show the sendto window.
So it looks a lot like the bug mentioned here.

If I start in terminal:
Initializing nautilus-gdu extension
Initializing nautilus-open-terminal extension
Init pidgin plugin
Init evolution plugin
Init gajim plugin

System log shows:
Feb 7 08:46:50 lmde kernel: [ 1694.279339] nautilus-sendto[3503]: segfault at 7f2bcfdf63d6 ip 00007f2bd50aec76 sp 00007fff44174818 error 4 in libc-2.13.so[7f2bd5034000+17a000]

Can somebody confirm this is the same bug?

Happened to me after trying to get rid of Evolution to have a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise default apps installation.. but it seems that
it broke the send to menu in nautilus.

How can we safely remove all Evolution traces without loosing clock indicator and sendto menu ??????

don't uninstall evolution-data-server, the name is unfortunate but the service is not only used by evolution, it's also used for contact,calendar by other desktop components
