Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Ubuntu Hardy with Proposed updates enabled (to get new firefox)

In the Network Servers location I can see several SFTP File Transfer
hosts. Some are Macs, some are other Ubuntu machines, some are Gentoo
machines, either advertised by their own avahi/zeroconf as appropriate,
or advertised on their behalf by a local ubuntu box. (I don't believe
the avahi config is wrong, for reasons below)

Attempting to connect to them I get up a simple dialogue saying "Unable
to find supported ssh command" with no further explanation of what the
problem is. This occurs regardless of the server OS I'm trying to
connect to.

Nothing appears in syslog either on the client or the server end.

Tried installing (as they weren't installed by default but looked
relevant) gvfs-bin and sshfs. No change.

gvfs-mount sftp://host produced the same error message, as did directly
trying to go to sftp://host in the nautilus url bar.

Needless to say (but not needless to test, I *did* test it, honest),
sftp on the commandline works fine, as does ssh.

Google tells me nothing! No-one else seems to be getting it!

It *looks* like something is just missing from my system, but I have no
idea what, or why, so I'm kind of hoping someone will tell me and
irritatably mark the bug invalid (although presumably whatever's missing
should be a dependency of something like ubuntu-desktop, so it may be a
real bug in that sense). It used to work on earlier versions, I'm sure.
