GnomeVFS issue with FTP sites

Not sure if this is a gnome or a gnome-vfs issue, however,
I've noticed 
that FTP sites show the "unknown" icon for folders
when using GnomeVFS. 
SSH still shows the appropriate folder icon though.

This is using gnome-vfs-2.16.2 on Gnome 2.16.0 (Fedora Core
6).

That looks strange, thanks for the bug report. Most probably
it's the
issue with the gnome setup. Can you please send the
following:

What mime type is reported by "gnomevfs-info
ftp://someserver/somedir"?

What icon does it search for? You can find the name of the
icon by
looking into strace log. You can attach to the nautilus
process with the
command "strace -p <nautilus pid> 2>
nautilus.log".

I investigated it a bit more and sent the following email to
gnome-vfs-list:



"Not sure if this is already known... but I'm experiencing some
problems
with GnomeVFS over FTP connections. Folders are coming back as
application/octet-stream rather than x-folder/normal and thus the icons
in Nautilus are all the "unknown" icon rather than folder icons.



I'm using gnome-vfs-2.16.2 on Gnome 2.16.0 (Fedora Core 6)."



And running the command you gave (I didn't know about that command and
wrote a quick C program to get the info):

Name              : public_html

Type              : Directory

MIME type         : application/octet-stream

Size              : 4096

Blocks            : 8

I/O block size    : 32768

Local             : NO

SUID              : NO

SGID              : NO

Sticky            : NO

Link count        : 12

UID               : 35513

GID               : 99

Access time       : Mon Jan  1 20:23:00 2007

Modification time : Mon Jan  1 20:23:00 2007

Change time       : Mon Jan  1 20:23:00 2007



So it seems to be the application/octet-stream that's the problem. 



This does not occur over SSH, that comes back as x-folder/normal.

Well, if you can write small program, you can also step
through
unix_ls_to_file_info function in ftp-method.c of gnome-vfs
module and
find where does it really assign octet-stream. Probably it
incorrectly
parses output from your server.

Possibly. I'd certainly want to learn. I know
how to use gdb... i guess I would just need to build gnome-vfs from
source using the -g option?
