Whenever I double-click a directory in nautilus-2.18.3-r1, it crashes. The bug only occurs in the splitted view, where a file tree is on the left and the actual display is on the right hand side; the double click only crashes the application if it takes place in the view on the right. double clicks on simple files work. I'm not sure if this is a gentoo or a gnome bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. double-click a directory in the display panel on the right hand side of the split-view. Actual Results: crash Expected Results: the contents of the directory should be displayed > emerge --info Portage 2.1.3.9 (default-linux/amd64/2007.0, gcc-4.2.0, glibc-2.6.1-r0, 2.6.22-gentoo-r6 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.22-gentoo-r6 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz Timestamp of tree: Wed, 26 Sep 2007 08:50:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p17-r1 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7, 2.0.33-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.5.1-r2 sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.10-r5 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.61-r1 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10 sys-devel/binutils: 2.18 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.24 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.22-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="confcache distlocks metadata-transfer parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/ ftp://mirrors.64hosting.com/pub/mirrors/gentoo/ http://gentoo.netnitco.net" LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" LINGUAS="en" MAKEOPTS="-j3 -l 4.0" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages --filter=H_**/files/digest-*" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlays/gentoo-haskell /usr/local/overlays/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl acpi alsa amd64 amr apm avahi bitmap-fonts bzip2 cdda cdr cli cracklib crypt css cups dbus directfb dri dts dvd dvdr dvdread encode ffmpeg firefox flac flash ftp gdbm gif gnome gnutls gpm gtk gtk2 hal hddtemp howl iconv icq ipv6 isdnlog jabber java jpeg jpeg2k libnotify live lm_sensors logrotate mad midi mmx mozilla mp3 mpeg mudflap musepack mysql ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia offensive ogg openal opengl openmp pam pcre pdf perl png pppd python readline reflection samba session spl sse sse2 ssl stream svg tcpd theora threadsafe tiff truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb vcd vim vim-syntax vorbis wxwindows xml xorg xv zlib" ALSA_CARDS="emu10k1" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="en" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
nautilus-2.18.3-r1 revbump fixes precisely that... Are you sure you are using 2.18.3-r1 and not 2.18.3?

Yeah, it was probably managing your desktop and it's a single instance application by default. After the first crash after the upgrade it should have reloaded with the fix and not crash further.
