Package: thunar Version: 1.2.3-4+b1 Severity: wishlist I'm trying to access a filesystem on a different system using SSH. I know that thunar supports this, but I can't get it to work or even extract any meaningful error message. Just to make that clear: I'm not running XFCE, just thunar inside a fluxbox session!
I've been doing some research, and it seems that thunar requires some external packages in order to use SSH, but I don't know which and they are not hard dependencies. In any case, all recommends and suggests are installed, apart from xfce4-panel. I have also installed gvfs-bin and gvfs-fuse, but neither helped. I guess that it's just a matter of documenting these dependencies (README.Debian perhaps?), if these are the problem at all. That said, the error messages are not really helpful. If I put "ssh://192.168.1.2/" into thunar's location field, it just displays a red icon next to it, without any further error message. If I start it from a terminal, I get a popup and the same text echoed on the console: ~$ thunar "ssh://192.168.1.2/" Thunar: Failed to open "ssh://192.168.1.2/": The specified location is not supported This is very similar to gvfs: ~$ gvfs-mount -m "ssh://192.168.1.2/" Error mounting location: The specified location is not supported I'm confident I could find out what's wrong myself, but I think a user shouldn't be required to read the sources and search the web in order to get this to work, hence the wishlist bug.
