Do you have gnome-vfs-extras installed? If not, this may fix this problem.

Worked after installing: libgnomevfs2-extra
Maybe it should be installed by default?

See bug #32951 for an explanation, should work if you have ubuntu-desktop installed.

I assume that if ubuntu-desktop now depends on that package (and it was not at the time flight 4 was built because I had it installed -> fresh install), then this is fair.
