Bug#830795: nautilus: Trying to change a folder's icon in the properties dialog freezes nautilus

[Raphaël Hertzog]

Package: nautilus
Version: 3.20.1-3
Severity: important
Tags: upstream patch
User: devel at kali.org
Usertags: origin-kali
Control: forwarded -1 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767229

If you right click on a folder, then select "Properties" and then
click on the icon to try to change it, you get a file browser dialog
where you can't do anything. It looks like nautilus is frozen
but in fact you can get out of it by pressing ESC.

There's an upstream patch available:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=6df5972

It would be nice if this fix could be included in Debian. I asked upstream
to backport it in the 3.20 branch too.
