    How to patch Nautilus toolbar to add Up and Home button on Oneiric?

    Recently I have upgraded to Oneiric. I was bit disappointed after changing to Nautilus. Since they have removed up button from the toolbar. I was also bit frustrated since reload button and home button was missing from the Toolbar. I came to know that they have made patch. But I have downloaded but don’t know how to apply?

    In order to apply the patch you have to perform below mentioned steps.
    You have to create a new directory and download nautilus source code and dependencies.
    Code:
    mkdir nautilus-mod
    cd nautilus-mod
    apt-get source nautilus
    sudo apt-get build-dep nautilus
    now move to nautilus source directory.
    Code:
    cd nautilus-3.2.1
    you have to move the nautilus-toolbar-patch.txt file to source directory.
    Code:
    mv [location of patch] .
    you have to patch source code.
    Code:
    patch -p1 < nautilus-toolbar-patch.txt
    If you have patched successfully then build nautilus
    HTML Code:
    ./configure --prefix=/usr
    make
    in case any nautilus process running on the system then kill the same and install them system-wide by using below mentioned code.

    Code:
    killall -KILL nautilus
    sudo make install

    In case nautilus is updated then it will overwrite the patched version. You have to move towards the folder where you have patched nautilus previously. There you have to run sudo make install again. you can also point out towards the current version of the nautilus so it will never get updated.

    As you are executing ‘apt-get source nautilus’ command it will create new folder which is called as nautilus-3.2.1 which is containing source code nautilus.
    Now you have to patch file into folder and simply apply the patch on the source code. Now you have to build then install. There will not be any changes untill and unless you execute ‘sudo make install’

    If you wanted to roll back to original state then you have to execute sudo make uninstall and reinstall the below mentioned software by using below mentioned command.
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus
