Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs-fuse

This is a major problem since it prevents any operation that wants to
store to the filesystem, including /tmp.  gvfs seems to have decided
that one of my network drives is in my root partition.  That makes it
think the root partition is full.  (it isn't, really.)

A backup, made with Simple Backup, is in /mnt/mediavault/backup
/computer-backup-filename.ful .  That dir and backup now show up no
matter what.  I can't umount the partition, even using -f.  I moved the
backup out of that dir, and it still lists as being in that location,
although it no longer is.  In desperation, I tried to remove ~/.gvfs,
hoping that would straighten gvfs out, but it won't let me since the
resource is busy.

I'm running, 8.04.  gvfs-fuse 0.2.3-0ubuntu5

This is similar to, but not the same as these bugs:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/217389 "root partition usage
reaches 100% without reason."  In that case extra backup files weren't
noticed and could be removed once they were.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-utils/+bug/211789 "disk
usage analyzer shows twice disk capacity"  Deselecting gvfs-fuse-daemon
and rebooting did not solve the problem for me.  Also, this bug is said
to be "fixed upstream" but whatever is causing my problem is not fixed
:(

How can I wake gvfs up to the fact that 2.2GB are NOT on my root
partition, but somewhere else entirely?!
