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 Released
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.
