[Bug 235412] Re: stat() fails with EPERM on ~/.gvfs

 

Please don't downgrade triaged bugs to incomplete without at least
trying to reproduce the problem yourself.  There hasn't been activity
because it has not been fixed.  The directory has however, been moved
from ~/.gvfs to /run/user/id/gvfs.

Title:
  stat() fails with EPERM on ~/.gvfs

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  While it is known that root can not access the contents of the .gvfs
  directory by design, stat() on the directory itself also fails with
  EPERM despite the fact that root has read permission on the parent
  directory.  stat() on the mount point needs to succeed and should
  probably return a mode indicating no access is allowed.  Simply
  determining that the directory IS a mount point and that you do not
  have access to its contents requires the use of stat.
