Package: gvfs-backends Version: 1.12.3-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I can mount a CIFS share as root with mount.cifs, but I prefer not to be root, so am trying gvfs. gvfs succeeds to mount a share, same effect as using the Nautilus file manager's urlbar with smb:// gvfs-mount smb://p...@rfs.home.uuku.edu/groups/CRMDA/John After that, attempting to browse the mounted folder is a disaster. Everything in the mounted directory is seen as a directory, and inside every directory is a directory listing of the main directory. I've got files and directories in there, but they all appear as directories. When I was seeing this in Nautilus, it was hard to demonstrate, but I learned about this cli access. paul@pols-124:~$ gvfs-ls smb://p...@rfs.home.uuku.edu/groups/CRMDA/John ~snapshot empty.txt junk.txt linux.test WesMagic pj.junk Descriptive SVN Observe: the folder WesMagic has the top level file list inside it: paul@pols-124:~$ gvfs-ls smb://p...@rfs.home.uuku.edu/groups/CRMDA/John/WesMagic ~snapshot empty.txt junk.txt linux.test WesMagic pj.junk Descriptive SVN paul@pols-124:~$ gvfs-ls smb://p...@rfs.home.uuku.edu/groups/CRMDA/John/WesMagic/WesMagic ~snapshot empty.txt junk.txt linux.test WesMagic pj.junk Descriptive SVN Observe the -l option output, showing that txt files are seen as directories. paul@pols-124:~$ gvfs-ls -l smb://p...@rfs.home.uuku.edu/groups/CRMDA/John/WesMagic/WesMagic ~snapshot 2048 (directory) empty.txt 2048 (directory) junk.txt 2048 (directory) linux.test 2048 (directory) WesMagic 2048 (directory) pj.junk 2048 (directory) Descriptive 2048 (directory) SVN 2048 (directory) Hmm. now I notice this thing called ~snapshot in that share. I didn't put it there, perhaps it is some file system "magic" from the system managers. If the first chraracter as a tilde is confusing gvfs, maybe ... But why would mount.cifs work? -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.7-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gvfs-backends depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.12.1-3 ii gvfs 1.12.3-3 ii gvfs-common 1.12.3-3 ii gvfs-daemons 1.12.3-3 ii gvfs-libs 1.12.3-3 ii libarchive12 3.0.4-2 ii libavahi-client3 0.6.31-1 ii libavahi-common3 0.6.31-1 ii libavahi-glib1 0.6.31-1 ii libbluetooth3 4.99-2 ii libc6 2.13-37 ii libcdio-cdda1 0.83-4 ii libcdio-paranoia1 0.83-4 ii libcdio13 0.83-4 ii libdbus-1-3 1.6.8-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100-1 ii libexpat1 2.1.0-1 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.0-3 ii libglib2.0-0 2.33.12+really2.32.4-3 ii libgphoto2-2 2.4.14-2 ii libgphoto2-port0 2.4.14-2 ii libgudev-1.0-0 175-7 ii libimobiledevice2 1.1.1-4 ii libplist1 1.8-1 ii libsmbclient 2:3.6.6-4 ii libsoup-gnome2.4-1 2.38.1-2 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.38.1-2 ii libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-7 ii psmisc 22.19-1 Versions of packages gvfs-backends recommends: ii gnome-keyring 3.4.1-5 Versions of packages gvfs-backends suggests: ii obex-data-server 0.4.5-1+b3 ii samba-common 2:3.6.6-4 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
