Description:

Overtime right clicking a file or folder to open as root breaks. The only means of fixing it seems to be a full system reinstall.

Additional info:
* 5.8.3-1
* Do you want the Looking Glass log? I tried running it, and did not see anything when trying to run a folder as root. Have any specific actions you want me to run to generate the right log?
* Upstream bug report: https://github.com/linuxmint/nemo/issues/3234
Believe it's an issue with Arch.

Steps to reproduce:

Step 1. Install Cinnamon
Step 2. Update to a more recent version of Cinnamon. Eventually, it breaks.
This task depends upon

Clearly not an Arch packaging issue. Please do as instructed last time and take it to the support channels and/or report it upstream.

This has existed for a long time. Running nemo from command line with sudo opens with the elevated privileges; but, does not when running from the right click menu.
