My workaround is to remove them in /etc/rc.local. There will always be one in /tmp, because rc.local runs before the gnome session starts. I don't know if "--ignore-fail-on-non-empty" is really needed -- the virtual-* directories have always been empty when I removed them manually. $ cat /etc/rc.local #!/bin/sh # # This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts. # You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't # want to do the full Sys V style init stuff. touch /var/lock/subsys/local rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty /tmp/virtual-* Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/531880/comments/17 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2011-06-02T18:09:06+00:00 Bug wrote: This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
