Nautilus hash table assertion failed

Hello,

I am a newcomer to the Linux / Manjaro world and wanted to output the version of nautilus in the terminal.
Also I wanted to start nautilus as sudo, unfortunately it crashed after I opened a folder.
I land on this error:

nautilus --version
** Message: 20:18:51.068: Connecting to org.freedesktop.Tracker3.Miner.Files
GNOME nautilus 43.2
sys:1: Warning: g_hash_table_foreach: assertion ‘hash_table != NULL’ failed

I really hope you can help me :grinning:
Tahnk you for your answers :smile:

Hi and welcome to the forum :partying_face:

I land on the same error:

sys:1: Warning: g_hash_table_foreach: assertion ‘hash_table != NULL’ failed

Nautilus functions like I’m used to. I would ignore the error, eg it is not relevant.

If I needed to do some file management as root that would be bad so I make sure I own the files and I can move/delete/shred them. I would use the context menu to open a specific folder as the administrator and do my thing from there if needed, that’s what it’s for, it asks for authorization and starts a file manager process with the correct context. Does that work?

Yeah, this is working for me, but I want to know why this bug appears :confused:
