I have the following line in a script:-

proc{`nautilus --no-desktop ~/path/to/file &`}

which produces the following immediately after nautilus is closed-  
(nautilus:6832): Eel-WARNING \*\*: “nautilus-metafile.c: metafiles” hash  
table still has 1 element at quit time (keys above)  
(nautilus:6832): Eel-WARNING \*\*: “nautilus-directory.c: directories”  
hash table still has 1 element at quit time (keys above)  
(nautilus:6832): Bonobo-WARNING \*\*: Leaked a total of 3 refs to 3 bonobo  
object(s)

I think that my line is legitimate and I _do_ have permissions to all of  
the files and directories that I am pointing nautilus to. What can I do  
about this? Has any one come across this before?
