afc: Fix force unmount of devices (2.39 KB, patch)

Description Bastien Nocera 2013-09-18 13:32:46 UTC 
After unplugging an iOS device, the mount is still there because gvfsd-afc doesn't exit. It seems that the call to g_vfs_backend_force_unmount() doesn't do anything.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2013-09-20 14:26:56 UTC 
the gphoto2 backend would likely have the same problem if you used this patch:

I've committed a work-around for this:

afc: Fix force unmount of devices

The exit(1) workaround does not work for me (f21 gvfs package) when unplugging a gvfs-mounted ipod touch without unmounting it first (the gvfsd-afc process is still alive). The attached patch works for me in this scenario.

Yes! And to the stable branches as well please.

Pushed as commit 32adf492a9 and to the gnome-3-14 branch. There was a conflict when trying to cherry-pick to the gnome-3-12 branch (probably not too hard to solve), just let me know if you want it there too.
