Summary0005736: Gnome3 Files Manager Not Working
Description

2 days ago after updating linux, gnome file manager does not open. When I want to open anything under the "places" option at the top (home-documents-download-desktop ...), it tries to open it with "chirp", but it can't be opened naturally.

I've tried everything I know, but nothing changed. Methods I have applied;

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get full-upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade
apt-get autoremove && apt-get autoclean && apt-get clean && apt-get autoremove --purge
apt-get --purge remove
apt-get install gnome-core kali-defaults kali-root-login desktop-base
apt-get -f install --reinstall
tracker reset -r
tracker reset -e
dpkg --configure -a
Live CD(USB) Recovery Mode

Hi Joker, just got the same problem here...
the package 'libgnome-desktop-3-18' seems to be missing from kali default repo, only 'libgnome-desktop-3-17' is present.
My workaround:
1 - manually install the package or add the Debian Sid repo to apt source: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian sid main non-free contrib
2 - run apt update BUT ONLY install this missing package 'libgnome-desktop-3-18'
3 - comment the Deb sid entry on apt sources and run apt update again
4 - from now on you should be able to install all missing packages
5 - finally install nautilus

We completed the transition to Gnome 3.34. Should be fixed in kali-rolling now.
