Archive Mounter is broken

AUR : automounter.git
Exec=/usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-archive file=%u

$ gvfs-mount
This tool has been deprecated, use 'gio mount' instead.

$ gio mount Text.zip
Volume doesn’t implement mount

What should go in exec?

Reporting issues with some user-made desktop file from AUR package to upstream glib developers makes no sense. They have nothing to do with this. You should have at least read the gio man page to realize that the 'gio mount' commands you were trying aren't supposed to work, and not report that as an issue.

That being said, glib developer oholy was kind enough to provide you with explanation and solution in the upstream report.

I'm here to fix the issue, not to listen to moralisms. Thanks.

Re: Archive Mounter is broken

What the hell is that reponse?  There is no "moralism"; you reported a problem upstream when it is not an upstream problem.  Report it to the AUR maintainer if you want them to fix it.  As for fixing the issue, as ooo notes, upstream did even provide a fix.

So what's preventing this from being marked as SOLVED?

Re: Archive Mounter is broken

What do you want it to do?  The Exec line you had includes a parameter file=%u, where file is not a recognized option, and %u is replaced by the user name, so even if file= was an option, how would inserting a user name there be useful?

If you want it to be for a specific file, then the upstream report already said that the parameter should be "archive:" followed by a url-encoded filename.

EDIT: wait, is this a desktop file not a service file - I suppose it probably is.  In that case desktop files can do the url encoding.  So according to the upstream issue, it should likely be archive:%u

Re: Archive Mounter is broken

I didn't mean to moralise, but simply point out that you had reported the issue to people who has nothing to do with the issue, as pointed out by devs in your upstream report as well. Even if this was upstream issue, you should at least check the man page to make sure the commands you're running are correct. Othewise you're pretty much just wasting developer's time.

The actual issue with the AUR package, as pointed out in the upstream report, is that gvfsd-archive in the Arch gvfs package was moved from /usr/lib/gvfs to /usr/lib, and the AUR package had not been updated to correspond with the change. Again, this has nothing to do with upstream.

Sorry if you were offended by my comment, and I can see my phrasing was rather blunt. However, I was merely trying to guide you to provide more valuable issue reports in the future.

Re: Archive Mounter is broken

Okay, no problem.

Also neither of the proposed solutions works in my system. Doing:
Exec=/usr/lib/gvfsd-archive file=[FILE]

Does mount [FILE], but:
Exec=/usr/lib/gvfsd-archive file=%u

Does nothing. My desktop environment is Deepin, could it be rather a bug there?
