[brian m. carlson]

Package: gvfs-fuse
Version: 0.2.3-1

regardless of whether the mounts have been unmounted and remounted, or
any other condition.

The first time I mount a gvfs volume, everything is fine. However, about halfway through trying to rescan my collection[0], exaile starts providing error messages about "Transport endpoint is not connected". Starting from that point, any operation on ~/.gvfs fails. This happens lakeview ok % df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on [0] Part of the collection is on a gvfs fuse mount on another computer. The mount used is sftp.
