GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 352824
Hang on gnome_vfs_get_file_info_uri for non existing remote directory (using SSH)
Last modified: 2018-08-17 13:45:05 UTC
I got gnome-vfs to hang while getting info about a remote non-existing directory (using SSH). It may be the problem is caused by: (gedit:22330): libgnomevfs-WARNING **: Failed to activate daemon: The name org.gnome.GnomeVFS.Daemon was not provided by any .service files but Jesse (in CC) is able to reproduce it on Ubuntu Dapper too (without the above warning). Here the stack trace I got attaching gdb to the blocked process: (gdb) bt full
+ Trace 70983
gnome-vfs got deprecated in 2008. gnome-vfs is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes in 2011. Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gnome-vfs/commits/master gio (in glib) and gvfs are its successors. See https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/ch33.html and https://people.gnome.org/~gicmo/gio-migration-guide/ for porting info. Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Feel free to open a task in GNOME Gitlab if the issue described in this task still applies to a recent + supported version of glib/gio/gvfs. Thanks!
