Public bug reported:
When I plug my iPhone into my system running 12.10, it is automatically
mounted in ~/.gvfs. The name of the mount point is incorrect - some
characters in the name are replaced by whitespace. For example, my
phone's name is "Steve's iPhone" The apostrophe (which might be a
unicode right single quotation mark U+2019, I'm not sure) is not
displayed in the name of the mount point.
This is a regression from 12.04, in which it worked properly.
To reproduce:
1) Plug in an iPhone with a name that contains an apostrophe (or unicode right
single quotation mark?)
2) View the contents of ~/.gvfs (e.g. `ll ~/.gvfs`)
Expected results:
The name of the mount points created for the phone match the name of the
iPhone. No extra characters are inserted in the name of the mount points.
Actual results:
The name of the mount points created have extra spaces, and the apostrophe is
gone. For example:
steve@steve-laptop:~$ ll ~/.gvfs/
total 4
dr-x------ 4 steve steve 0 Sep 10 08:54 ./
drwxr-xr-x 73 steve steve 4096 Sep 12 10:07 ../
drwx------ 1 steve steve 0 Dec 31 1969 Documents on Steve s iPhone/
drwx------ 1 steve steve 544 Sep 9 10:57 Steve s iPhone/
(Note the extra spaces between my name and the 's' - these should not be
there).
The strange naming, with extraneous spaces, is also seen in nautilus and
other windows that display the name of the phone.
