Summary0003402: Nautilus freeze when trying to change icon
Description

I tried to change an icon in nautilus - right click on a folder, then open the "properties" window, then click on the icon, the file chooser opens up and freezes.

Hmm. Didn’t notice it earlier, but actually Nautilus freezes on File Chooser dialog. The rest of the system continues to work normally.

Steps To Reproduce

Try to change an icon with nautilus. Right click an desktop icon. click on proprieties. Then click on the icon itself. Nautilus will open and freeze...
Really anoying...

Additional Information

Work around is to press ESC when in the file chooser.

You can get out of the "freeze" by pressing ESC but I can reproduce the issue even on Debian Unstable.

Is there a way to fix it?

There's a fix upstream, yes: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767229
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=6df5972

I forwarded this bug to Debian https://bugs.debian.org/830795 and that's all I'm going to do right now. I won't apply this fix only for Kali (no point in diverging only for this), we will get it when it's fixed in Debian. So I'm closing the ticket now.
