I don't use pcmanfm, but I do have gvfs installed.  Trying to "gio list
sftp://host; returns "The specified location is not mounted", so at
least my behavior is different.  

(Disclaimer, I may not know what I am doing with gio/gvfs; it is pulled
in by thunar and evince on my system.)

I have gvfs built with the following use flags enabled: cdda, elogind,
gnome-keyring, policykit, udev, udisks

Not sure if any of this is helpful to you or not, but maybe it will
provide a clue.



[gentoo-user] gio/pcmanfm sftp:// "operation not supported"

2022-10-25 Thread Grant Edwards
Does anybody have any idea how to get pcmanfm to work with sftp?

I've found plenty of sources claiming it should work but all I ever
get when I try to open "sftp:///" is "operation not supported"
[same result for both pcmanfm and pcmanfm-qt].

Google led me to several pages where the problem was not having gvfs
installed. I do have gvfs installed, but I suspect it's broken. I get
the impression that

$ gio list sftp:///

is supposed to work, but that too says "Operation not supported".

I've run strace -f on the above command, and none of the traced system
calls return ENOTSUP or EOPNOTSUPP

The same sftp:// URL works fine in filezilla, so I know the remote
server is OK.

The loan of a clue would be appreciated.
