RHBA-2010:0317 - Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

An updated gnome-vfs2 package that fixes a bug is now available.

Description

GNOME VFS is the GNOME virtual file system. It is the foundation of
the Nautilus file manager. It provides a modular architecture and
ships with several modules that implement support for file systems,
http, ftp, and others. It provides a URI-based API, backend
supporting asynchronous file operations, a MIME type manipulation
library, and other features.

• the gnome-vfs2 package would only work correctly on a system running

Samba 3.0 packages, and could not be installed on a system running Samba
3.3 packages. The version of gnome-vfs provided with this advisory depends
only on a small Samba subpackage, which is independent from other Samba
packages. The gnome-vfs2 package can now be installed on a system running
Samba 3.3 packages. (BZ#555642)

Users are advised to check the parallel Samba advisory RHBA-2009:9287.

Users are advised to upgrade to this updated gnome-vfs2 package, which
resolves this issue.
