It appears this package only uses `gvfs-open`, which can be replaced by
Gtk.show_uri_on_window(), Gio.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri_async(),
Gio.AppInfo.launch_default_for_uri(), or "gio open".
Please prefer to use GTK/GLib APIs directly instead of executing
subprocesses via a command line, and if you need to execute subprocesses,
please prefer to use non-shell-based APIs like the subprocess module in
the Python standard library.
The upstream developers of gvfs have now removed all the tools that
are packaged in gvfs-bin. For now I'm going to keep providing them
as a Debian-specific addition, but I intend to remove the gvfs-bin
package after buster is released, at which point this bug will become
release-critical.
Thanks,
