Description Josselin Mouette 2006-11-10 21:14:53 UTC 
[ forwarded from http://bugs.debian.org/397374 ]

The space available in Nautilus is misleading because it does not
consider quotas.

Nautilus should show the amount of quota space avaialble, or failing
that, show both when quotas are relevant for the user on a given
filesystem.

====

This could be fixed either by introducing a new function, or by making do_get_volume_free_space from the file method return the remaining quota value when appropriate. Unfortunately this isn't trivial, especially for remote quotas.

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 Its codebase has been archived: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!
