Title: gvfsd-sftp: unable to append to file when using low-level writing (echo) Status in GVFS: Fix Released Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: Binary package hint: gvfs Configuration: Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic GNOME 2.28.0 gvfs 1.4.2 (tried building 1.5.1 - same result) Steps to reproduce behaviour: 1. Mount a GVFS-SFTP share (via sftp://someserver) 2. Open terminal and cd to this share 3. Run commands: user@host:~/.gvfs/sftp on someserver$ echo 100 > ./test user@host:~/.gvfs/sftp on someserver$ echo 200 >> ./test 4. Expected result: "200" appended to file contents 5. Real result - an error: bash: echo: write error: Operation not supported Additional information: When using a text editor writing with fopen (e.g. Geany: http://www.geany.org), all file contents is lost after saving the file. When using gedit (which seems to write via g_file_set_contents), all is OK. I have already filed a bug to the GNOME team (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=608910) and a similar bug about gvfsd-smb (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/517028). This behaviour is not reproducible with Ubuntu Jaunty (GNOME 2.26, gvfs 1.2.2), all is OK there.
