Confirming this bug. When nothing is mounted (FTP or SFTP), the /home/$USER/.gvfs/ folder says "Free space: 0 bytes". When accessing any folder in that folder, Nautilus still thinks there is 0 bytes available.
Accessing FTP or SFTP filesystems using the ftp:// or sftp:// protocols in Nautilus works fine. Nautilus won't consider the files as local (which is correct), won't try to count the content of folders if the option is for local files only (option is ignored when using the /home/.../.gvfs/... path), etc. File copy works fine. When a nautilus window is available, using the bookmarks from there will use the ftp:// or sftp// protocols. When using the bookmarks from the Gnome shortcuts menu, you will get a path with /home/$USER/.gvfs/... -- [Intrepid] Connecting to SSH server with Nautilus. Can't transfer file because "free space: 0 bytes" (gvfs bug ?) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291863 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
