Bug#538108: show_desktop=false makes nautilus not run, which breaks automount

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.26.3-1
Severity: important

The fix for bug 525718 makes nautilus no longer run with
show_desktop=false.  As upstream pointed out at
<http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=571417#c27>, this breaks
automount and media handling.  Since upgrading nautilus and
gnome-session to the versions with the fix for this bug, I indeed no
longer have working automount and media handling.

This represents a major usability regression, hence the severity
"important".  I'd actually argue for making this RC; Debian's GNOME
desktop should *not* ship without automount and media handling.
