Package: gvfs-bin Version: 1.22.2-1 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/gvfs-open
When I run Gnome (or at least configure my environment with XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME), xdg-email fails to send an email with an attachment. Usually, I can send an email with a file attached with: xdg-email --utf8 --to anar...@example.com --subject test --body "foo" --attach /etc/motd This starts mutt and everything works more or less correctly. But then with the above GNOME environment, xdg-email tries to start Icedove through gvfs-open. (If it was Thunderbird, mind you, it could work because there are special provisions for xdg-email to use Thunderbird, but this is Debian with its fork so that fails.) It does this with: gvfs-open 'mailto:?to=anar...@example.com&subject=test&body=foo&attach=/etc/motd' That starts Icedove with all fields properly populated, but no attachment. It seems to me this is a bug in gvfs-open. I tried to look for an issue upstream but couldn't make the search engine work here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?no_redirect=0&quicksearch=gvfs-open+attach+email Thanks -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.6.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages gvfs-bin depends on: ii gvfs-common 1.22.2-1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u6 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1+b1 gvfs-bin recommends no packages.
