Bug#527126: nautilus: dbus error message when unmounting is a bit long

[Alexandre Rossi]

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.26.2-3
Severity: minor

When unmounting a removable device (typically an USB key) after some large data
transfers, nautilus says it is impossible to remove the device with the
following error message:

  DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply.
  Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply,
  the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired,
  or the network connection was broken.

However, the notification asking to wait while the data is written to disk is
still here, and when the job is finished, unmounting succeeds and the
notification disappears.

The only thing left is that misleading error message saying that something went
wrong.

Feel free to ask for more info.

Alex
