** Package changed: mc (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- ?.gvfs files zero size
+ stat() fails with EPERM on ~/.gvfs

** Description changed:

- When i do in therminal >sudo mc  in my home folder appear files ?.gvfs
- zero size and his date 01.01.1970
+ While it is known that root can not access the contents of the .gvfs
+ directory by design, stat() on the directory itself also fails with
+ EPERM despite the fact that root has read permission on the parent
+ directory.  stat() on the mount point needs to succeed and should
+ probably return a mode indicating no access is allowed.  Simply
+ determining that the directory IS a mount point and that you do not have
+ access to its contents requires the use of stat.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Triaged
