[Bug 255894] [NEW] Valid path returns "The selected destination is not writtable..."

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 240988 ***

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sbackup

When I try to Test my location in Destination tab, I get:

"The selected destination is not writtable with current permissions.
The backups can not be written there."

But the destination is valid and all of these commands work fine in
ipython:

gnomevfs.get_file_info("ssh://hostname/path/path/file")
gnomevfs.make_directory("ssh://hostname/path/path/"+test,0700)
gnomevfs.remove_directory("ssh://hostname/path/path/"+test)

If I do this, though:

gnomevfs.get_local_path_from_uri("ssh://hostname/path/path")

I get:

<type 'exceptions.RuntimeError'>: unknown error

which may mean it's a more fundamental problem with gnomevfs?
