OK, I finally took the time to discover a way to squash it utterly. I now have my system setup to run this script after ever yum update (so if it comes back, I'll squash it again): #!/bin/bash # if [ -f /usr/libexec/gvfs-fuse-daemon ] then rm -f /usr/libexec/NOTgvfs-fuse-daemonNOT mv /usr/libexec/gvfs-fuse-daemon /usr/libexec/NOTgvfs-fuse-daemonNOT fi By renaming the daemon that runs the fuse mount, it can't get it started. I haven't noticed a single thing that fails to function yet with it disabled like this. I can't just remove the package that provides the daemon because several things claim to depend on it, but despite that, they all seem to work fine without it running. My ~/.gvfs directory is now just a plain directory with no weird attributes to confuse the heck out of backup programs, etc. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
