I know I’m a bit late to the party, having upgraded from Leap15.5 to 15.6 just now. During the upgrade, I ran into some package conflicts concerning Python, but I don’t remember the exact issues. I went with the proposed Solution 1 every time and hoped for the best. Unfortunately, now I can’t launch Nautilus (Gnome Files), neither using Gnome Shell (Wayland), nor Gnome X11 or IceWM. The error message I get is
pbiel@tux:~> nautilus

Has anyone else seen this issue? Can anyone here help me figure out what I am missing and how to fix it? I somewhat assume re-installing Nautilus would work, but since it’s so intertwined with Gnome Shell and whatnot, I would rather seek to find out which Python package I broke.
I didn’t install anything deliberately after the upgrade, however, this machine has been upgraded from maybe openSUSE 42.3 or so, with a lot of packages installed/uninstalled in the ten years since
I have owncloud-client-nautilus installed here, as a dependency from the ownCloud desktop client, and this seems to have python3-nautilus as a dependency.
sudo zypper se --requires -x 'typelib(Nautilus)'

Alright, I ran sudo zypper rm -u owncloud-client-nautilus, which also removed python3-nautilus. It didn’t alter anything directly, but now after a reboot, Nautilus seems to work just fine. Thanks for your support.
