C. <documentfoundation@mail.niknah.com>"> H. C.</a> <pre>Libreoffice opens the file with O_RDWR. Gvfs mounts only support opening files with O_TRUNC or O_APPEND. But not O_RDWR by itself. See... <a href="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748106">https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=748106</a> <a href="https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777152">https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=777152</a> You will get an "operating not permitted" error which shows up in libreoffice as "general input/output error". Some file managers default to opening gvfs files from /run/user/... because most older or simple programs don't support opening files with gvfs URLs, they only support normal file names. Backtrace just dropped me off to an empty gdb shell. But I found this out by using --strace.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
