Package: gvfs
Version: 1.6.4-3
Severity: important
Tags: l10n

After a fresh boot everything works fine. If I logout and login again,
$HOME/.gvfs folder is unaccessible:

$ ls -la |grep .gvfs
ls: cannot access .gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected
d?????????  ? ?     ?          ?            ? .gvfs

Also due to this, thunar and pcmanfm file managers are failing to start 
giving a
similar error about .gvfs folder.

One temporary solution is to manually unmount .gvfs before each logout:

# umount .gvfs

There are several bug reports for other distributions also. The one that 
I got
the temporary solution can be found here:
