Weird that you didn't have gvfs-backends installed, it should be there on a default installation. How did you install your system?
The new issue seems worth debugging, it's fine to repurpose the bug here, maybe ask upstream what they prefer on gitlab though? The error is similar to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2090 so maybe reusing that one makes sense -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to glib2.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1872286 Title: gio - cifs mount smb not possible "Location is not mountable" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/glib/+bug/1872286/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
