[Bug 225361] Re: other users don't have access to .gvfs
I've found a nice workaround for this, at least for the case where root is trying to backup /home. Before performing the backup, do: mount --bind /home /mnt/home-bind Then, backup /mnt/home-bind instead of /home. The bind mount exposes only things on the filesystem mounted at /home, so you get a full backup of that, without the FUSE/gvfs problem getting in the way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225361 Title: other users don't have access to .gvfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/225361/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 225361] Re: other users don't have access to .gvfs
We are now on 10.10 Maverick and this bug still exists. I can't believe that! I have over 20 years experience in unix systems, and believe me, if this bug is meant by design, than this design is broken! There should be nothing that root can't access on my own machine. There are some filesystems for accessing remote file systems (e.g. nfs), where you can define root acces as nobody. This is for security reasons, because you don't always have control over user rigths on remote systems. But inside my own system, root should have access to everything. And even if I have mounted filesystems where my root account has nobodys rights, then it should be possible to exclude them with rsyncs -x option (don't cross filesystem boundaries). This seems to be a second bug. Why does rsync try to include .gvfs with the -x option? If this is a mounted filesystem, it should be recognized as such. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225361 Title: other users don't have access to .gvfs -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 225361] Re: other users don't have access to .gvfs
rsync isn't trying to include .gvfs even with the -x option. It along with find(1), etc., has to be able to do some things with .gvfs to even work out it is the mount point of another filesystem and shouldn't be descended into further. Those things fail in a way that they never should with Unix semantics for root. You're just seeing other symptoms of the same underlying problem; FUSE's configuration not allowing root to do anything, as it normally can. But this bug report isn't the place for discussion, I suspect. I just wanted to clarify that there isn't a further bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225361 Title: other users don't have access to .gvfs -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
