[Bug 792622] Re: Cannot save documents to samba shares

 

I have tested this with i386 and still get the same problem. It does not
effect only x86_64.

I installed LibreOffice 3.4 and gvfs 1.9 (from oneiric) but this did not
solve anything. It's questionable whether this is a LO or gvfs bug.

I agree this problem deserves more attention. A user downloads the
newest Ubuntu, browses a company share, saves a file and it just doesn't
work. I've been using pam_mount as a workaround but this doesn't let non
technical users add shares themselves using nautilus or the connect to
server gui tool.

I've posted a bug report to LO.
