Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME reports here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?classification=Core that nautilus has moved to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/Nautilus

I am happy to file bugs and even go the extra mile, but you guys are not making it any easier. As it is, gitlab appears not to be under the UbuntuOne umbrella and their registration confirmation emails do not get to my inbox. I am sorry, but I give up.
