Thunar crashes when accessing file Properties

Hi,

I have some issue with Thunar 1.6.12-1 / XFCE 4.12.3 / Debian testing

Not always, but often,
when I try to access to "Properties" of a file,
Thunar freezes and starts to suck all the memory it can, including the swap when the RAM is over.

It seems to happen with any kind of files but not with directories.

It never happen with files in ~/Desktop folder (from the Desktop)
Even better, if I open Properties of a ~/Desktop/file
that fixes the issue for a while (maybe until the next user's session => not sure ???)
other times instead this just kill thunar when trying again to access properties.

Maybe (but not sure) this starts when I put a copy of :

/usr/share/themes/Numix/

as : ~/.themes/MyNumix

and edit :

~/.themes/MyNumix/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

Line : gtk-color-scheme =.............
ntitlebar_bg_color:#444444 → #EEEEEE
ntitlebar_fg_color:#dddddd → #444444
nmenubar_fg_color:#dddddd → #90EE90
npanel_bg_color:#444444 → #555555

~/.themes/MyNumix/xfwm4/themerc

active_text_color=#eeeeee → active_text_color=#00FFFF

Just to change few colors as you can see.

Or with the thunar upgrade from 1.6.11-1 to 1.1612-1

I can't remember because both went roughly in the same days

First I gave a try removing completly (purge) and re-installing :

libthunarx-2-0
thunar
thunar-archive-plugin
thunar-data
thunar-dropbox-plugin
thunar-gtkhash
thunar-media-tags-plugin
thunar-volman
xfce4
xfce4-places-plugin
xfdesktop4

Now I have removed ~/.themes/
But the troubles are still there.

What else,
I had a look to related bugs in :
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgrepo … st=testing
but I didn't find mine.

So I suppose that's because some thing went wrong when I tried with my custom Numix theme...

What could be tried to fix this now ?
