That's as expected.
If you unmask the unit, and change the apt configuration snippet that I
mentioned in a previous mail to this bug so it runs
"if ...; then GIO_USE_VFS=local appstream-cli refresh-cache > /dev/null..."
then that should avoid the unwanted daemons without either producing
error messages, or preventing the use of gvfs if some other program you
run as root actually needs it.
