I've found a workaround for this bug... mkdir /tmp/bin && cd /tmp/bin cat >xdg-open<<EOF firefox -remote "openURL($*,new-tab)" EOF for c in gnome-open gvfs-open do ln -s xdg-open $c done export PATH=/tmp/bin:$PATH sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-client-tools which xdg-open # should return /tmp/bin/xdg-open rather than /usr/bin/xdg-open now u1sync --authorize
The last command should fire up a firefox window and ask you to add the computer name to your Ubuntu One service. You can then sync files in your "Ubuntu One" directory with the remote server. The question is: who broke gvfs-open, or is it just my machine which has this issue? -- Ubuntu One client fails to sync files due to xdg-open not allowing subscription completion https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/504978 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
