Timo's workaround is just what I was looking for. I wouldn't use /tmp/.gvfs-$USER though since that's a predictable location. On a machine where lots of people log in to it someone could maliciously pre- create such directories for other users resulting in at best denial of service and at worst them being able to access other people's files. I'd use mktemp
rmdir ~/.gvfs 2>/dev/null || rm ~/.gvfs ln -s "$(mktemp -d)" ~/.gvfs -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435719 Title: gvfs-fuse fails to start on NFS mounted homes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/435719/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
