gvsfd-metadata segfault in live 10.04

[Peter Brewster]

Binary package hint: gvfs

1) 10.04 current to June 1. Bug also present in 9.10.
2) Package gvfs via upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04. The 9.10 was a fresh install and current to the time of upgrade. Problem application is /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-metadata.
3) Live system created using remastersys and unetbootin-linux to USB flash drive. The system works perfectly, before and after the segfault. However the segfault causes an "Application problem" window saying "Sorry, the program gvsfd-metadata closed unexpededly" which remains on-display until closed. This is impossible to explain away for the intended users of system.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.

If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.

If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
If you are using Kubuntu or Xubuntu you can file the crash using /usr/share/apport/apport-qt --crash-file=/var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash in a terminal - where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report.

I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.

Your request notwithstanding, aaport refuses to make a report - it claims gvfs is "not a genuine Ubuntu package." The crash report is attached.
