Please attach bugs to applications that don't work under GIO, that haven't already been ported, not Nautilus. Many applications have been ported (http://live.gnome.org/GioPort/) but it is simply impossible to port every application in the entire platform in a single release. For GNOME applications that advertise that they take URIs in their .desktop files (with %u), they should not if they cannot accept URIs from GVFS mounts (though many still do as they expect the VFS to be GnomeVFS). There's a fix that may be committed in GIO that will allow some fallback ability if you have the GVFS-Fuse module installed and are a member of the Fuse group, but I believe that's still being decided on for Ubuntu (Sebastian would know more about it than I would, I'm afraid. See GNOME bug 528670 for the idea).
As for KDE applications, unless (or until) a KIO-GIO bridge is completed, there's not a whole lot we can do; our VFSes are otherwise incompatible, and applications on both sides are validly advertising that they support URIs which they clearly can't in such a cross-desktop fashion. This needs discussion on the FreeDesktop.org list, with agreements on the semantics for URI schemes we share and/or keys that we can add to application's .desktop files to specify which VFS we're expecting, so that applications can properly deal with invalid URIs (e.g. fish:/ being passed to GEdit or gphoto2:// being passed to Krita). This, however, should probably be closed as not a bug; misbehaving applications are clearly outside of Nautilus' jurisdiction. -- Most ubuntu apps fail to open network files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207745 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
