systemd-tmpfiles, stat(/run/user/1000/gvfs) failed: Permission denied

Anybody also have been seeing this annoying error?

I already used

exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4

to start Xfce4.

Any suggestions?

I'm also seeing this.  Using KDM with KDE so I don't think it's a problem with the display manager.  No idea though.

It is a rather long existing bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32715

Sorry for resuscitating (no, I don't think it is necrobumping!) this thread.

It is a rather long existing bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32715

You forgot to mention that this bug is marked Status: Closed since April 2, 2013, the reason and comment for closing being: "Fixed in GNOME 3.8".

Besides that in my book GVFS != GNOME, and neither is it related to systemd (obviously, the version numbers don't match, and one can use GVFS and systemd with any number of window managers and desktop environments, even on a system running headless), the problem is still present:

$ systemctl status systemd-tmpfiles-clean.service

It would be interesting to know how the problem was fixed. If this particular fix doesn't work anymore or was lost during some upgrade, there clearly is a regression.
