The PPA still contains samba 4.11.6, not 4.11.7. We don't want to bump
the package version right now, so I just backported a few fixes needed
to fix this problem.

The first two are included in samba 4.11.7; the third one hasn't been
released yet, AFAIK.
It's interesting to notice that the bug manifests only on GIO/gvfs, and
not on mount.cifs/
haven't investigated much to find the reason for this discrepancy; maybe
GIO/gvfs's implementation of the SMB protocol are able to trigger a
corner case on samba when using SMB1. You can look at the bugs from

As I explained to Pier, there will be an SRU for samba on focal which
will include this fix.
