The PPA still contains samba 4.11.6, not 4.11.7. We don't want to bump the package version right now, so I just backported a few fixes needed to fix this problem. The fixes are: https://gitlab.com/samba-team/devel/samba/-/commit/a33656c9df2cde3ff1cfc6b0427c7dfb2b140cae https://gitlab.com/samba-team/devel/samba/-/commit/a95a8c7eaa46d5c8c485de714f0a97e307e49f7e https://gitlab.com/samba-team/devel/samba/-/commit/39c910fd9cba3caf7414274b678b9eee33d7e20b The first two are included in samba 4.11.7; the third one hasn't been released yet, AFAIK. It's interesting to notice that the bug manifests only on GIO/gvfs, and not on mount.cifs/smbclient, not even when using samba 4.11.6. I haven't investigated much to find the reason for this discrepancy; maybe GIO/gvfs's implementation of the SMB protocol are able to trigger a corner case on samba when using SMB1. You can look at the bugs from Fedora and/or Samba to see that the problem was with the way libsmbclient dealt with stat(2) on UNIX: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14101 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1801442#c28 As I explained to Pier, there will be an SRU for samba on focal which will include this fix.
