Title: Thunar browsing performance implementation - errors on gvfs
Post by: robinc on November 17, 2019, 06:53:27 AM
I have been puzzling over errors in .xsession-errors - esp.

Code: [Select]
This tool has been deprecated, use 'gio mount' instead.
See 'gio help mount' for more info.

gio: file:///home/robin/%3E: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///dev/null: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///home/robin/&&: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///home/robin/gvfs-ls: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///home/robin/%3E: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///dev/null: volume doesn’t implement mount

I found that in Session and Startup it's running Thunar browsing performance implementation which calls
Code: [Select]
gvfs-mount network: > /dev/null && gvfs-ls network: > /dev/null
Running that in terminal produced the deprecated error as above.

If instead I run
Code: [Select]
gio mount network: > /dev/null && gvfs-ls network: > /dev/nullin terminal then no gio error, but .xsession-errors now contains
Code: [Select]
gio: file:///home/robin/%3E: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///dev/null: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///home/robin/&&: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///home/robin/gvfs-ls: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///home/robin/%3E: volume doesn’t implement mount
gio: file:///dev/null: volume doesn’t implement mount
[b]gio: network:///: Location is already mounted
gio: network:///: Location is already mounted[/b]

As it happens I have no interest in the network side, just hadn't switched this off in Session and Startup - not sure if it's a bug, but I have tracked down a number of posts about xdg being deprecated.

I'll try Series 5.x without the browsing performance implementation and see if there is a difference.
