Disable gvfs plugins when listing flatpak installations

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • 'gvfs-daemon' is started by default for root users, even if the root user is not logged in to the system console.

    $ runlevel 
5 3

$ ps aux | grep gvfs
root        2895  0.0  0.6 312916  9408 ?        Ssl  18:26   0:00 /usr/libexec/gvfsd
root        3510  0.0  0.0  12136  1152 pts/0    R+   18:27   0:00 grep --color=auto gvfs

  • Why is gvfs-daemon being started indirectly by flatpak using DBUS activation?
