** Description changed:

  [ Description ]
  
  Copying from some devices is broken over gvfs
  
  [ Test case ]
  
- ?
+ - browse a directory with a .tar.gz, using nautilus
+ - right click on the file, select "open with archive mounter" 
+ 
+ -> that makes the archive being listed as a mount in the sidebar/unity
+ launcher
+ 
+ - browse that mount, find a file to copy in there
+ - try to copy it to your user directory
+ 
+ -> if the fix is doing its job, the copy should work without error
  
  [ Proposed fix ]
  
  Cherry-pick upstream commit 44edc3829d6db3fabe22d837eaaf2638003516c9 to
  fall back to g_file_query_info if query_info_on_read isn't supported.
  
  [ Regression potential ]
  
  Adds an extra step into file copying over gvfs. Check all previous gvfs
  copies still work.
  
  [ Original report ]
  
  Hello,
  
  on Saucy I can't copy files from my digital camera to my PC anymore via
  file manager. This is a serious regression since it worked on all
  previous version of Ubuntu since Lucid at least (even earlier versions
  not tested because I didn't own the camera at that time).
  
  It is easy to reproduce:
  - Start PC from USB stick with current Saucy daily live image
  - Connect and turn on camera
  - Open Nautilus, browse the files on the camera, select one of them and 
right-click -> copy
  - Now when I try to paste the file into my home directory, I get an error 
dialog saying copying failed with the reason "Operation not supported by 
backend" (see attached screenshot)
  
  I get the same error message if I try to copy the file on terminal with
  the command gvfs-copy.
  
  However, if I try to copy a file on terminal with the gphoto2 tool, e.g.
  'gphoto2 --get-file 1', this works.
  
  It also works if I copy files with cp in a terminal from gvfs-mountpoint
  mounted at /run/user/my_userid/gvfs/my_camera_mountpoint .
  
  Kind regards,
  Jan
