Bug Description

I have used Nemo for a while now, and lately it seems it is more fragile.

Everything will be fine, and then I will, say, click on a different tab, and nothing will happen.
I will click something else, and nothing.
Then suddenly the Nemo window will disappear, the desktop will disappear (handled by Nemo),
and the "Ubuntu 14.04 has experienced an internal error" window will show up.

I tried "ubuntu-bug", but Nemo not being "official", it doesn't work.
("The problem cannot be reported:

This is not an official Ubuntu package. Please remove any third party package and try again.")

I did get the following error(s) in the terminal:
"ERROR: hook /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_nemo.py crashed:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 197, in _run_hook
    symb['add_info'](report, ui)
TypeError: add_info() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 202, in _run_hook
    symb['add_info'](report)
  File "/usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_nemo.py", line 6, in add_info
    if report.has_key("Stacktrace") and "/usr/lib/nemo" in report["Stacktrace"]:
AttributeError: 'Report' object has no attribute 'has_key'
"
which I report in case it is useful...

I have just installed Lubuntu 15.10, and I merely installed Nemo from the repositories.

Nemo is now up to version 2.6.7-1, and still exhibits the same fragilitiy.

Everything will be fine, then I will click on a tab, or similar, and nothing will happen - shortly thereafter, all windows
(and the desktop), will disappear, and shortly thereafter, the "[L]Ubuntu has experienced an internal error" window will pop up.

This time (probably because I obtained Nemo through the repositories this time), I was able to report it using 'ubuntu-bug nemo'.

Since I still have more work to do using Nemo now, I will re-invoke it with the terminal, and if it crashes again, I will report on
anything potentially useful it reports.
