Dear Maintainer,

I booted up my debian installation today, with the intent to do some bulk renaming of files I have preserved (Just some simple additions, replaceing E with episode, for instance). However, after some frequent update, of which I am uncertain, renaming the files creates an address boundry error.
Thinking I must have messed up the application at some point, I ran sudo apt reinstall nautilus, to correct whatever could've happened, which did run successfully. However, the trouble remains.
   The outcome was an address boundry error crashing nautilus, naturally, I expected the rename function to be called.
   Here are the error logs after running via terminal using fish, the colloid icon pack, and having gsconnect installed (which is why your logs may not be fully replicated)
