Would you be willing to convert your upstream changes into a git merge
request and submit it upstream at
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/merge_requests ?

I haven't taken the time to understand whether these patches make
sense: do they remove critical functionality? Just making a package
build isn't helpful if it doesn't actually work.

I am unwilling to add dh_missing --list-missing to a package since I
prefer a hard error when files are missing. Sometimes it would be
appropriate -X (for --exclude) for certain files that don't matter. Or
you could do something like:

ifeq (,$(filter $(DEB_TARGET_ARCH), hurd-amd64 hurd-i386))
dh_missing --list-missing
else
dh_missing
endif

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
