Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gvfs
I tried to copy the contents of my home-folder using "sudo cp -a", and I got cp: cannot stat '/home/user/.gvfs': Permission denied This can be reproduced whenever /home/user/.gvfs is mounted according to /etc/mtab. Not only does "cp" yield an error, but also "ls" and "cd": $ whoami user $ ls -dl /home/user/.gvfs dr-x------ 2 user user 0 2008-05-01 19:55 /home/user/.gvfs $ sudo -s $ whoami root $ cd /home/user/.gvfs bash: cd: /home/user/.gvfs: Permission denied $ ls -dl /home/user/.gvfs ls: canot access /home/user/.gvfs: Permission denied $ umount /home/user/.gvfs $ ls -dl /home/user/.gvfs drwx------ 2 wg wg 4096 2008-04-25 23:12 /home/user/.gvfs $ cd /home/user/.gvfs $ pwd /home/user/.gvfs Ubuntu Version: 8.04 gvfs Version: 0.2.3-0ubuntu4 Expected Behaviour: well, grant access to the superuser whenever he tries to access ~/.gvfs This bug might be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/212789 ** Affects: gvfs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Superuser cannot access ~/.gvfs folder when mounted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225361 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
