I found out that the problem is in the following piece of code (file- utils.c line 1253):
gboolean uri_is_local (const char *uri) { GnomeVFSURI *vfs_uri; gboolean is_local; vfs_uri = new_uri_from_path (uri); g_return_val_if_fail (vfs_uri != NULL, FALSE); is_local = gnome_vfs_uri_is_local (vfs_uri); gnome_vfs_uri_unref (vfs_uri); return is_local; } gnome_vfs_uri_is_local says that a nfs url isn't local, what means that file-roller is threating it as a non local file. But file-roller should threat it as a local file, since nfs is mounted transparently. This means we have to add another check or it is a nfs mount, and then return true. I'm not really into gnome_vfs what means that I don't know to well which function i should use for that. -- File-roller is threating a nfs mount like a remote filesystem https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/138486 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for file-roller in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
