Bug#834860: libgtop: "glibtop: statvfs '/run/user/0/gvfs' failed" ten times every second in syslog

[JP Pozzi]

Hello,

Thanks for your rapid answer.
I was not using the user 0 but the user 1000. After reporting a Bug, I looked at the file "/run/user/1000/gvfs" and the permissions were "strange" with user/group/date/time set as "?".
And I can't (even as root) change owner or group.
The problem has now vanished !!! And gvfs permissions are OK.
As I can't reproduce that problem, it lasts 3 days and today there are no messages more,
you can close the report, but we never understand what happens.

Regards

JP P
