Yes, that's the problem. The most basic workaround is to build
gvfs without option GOA ("Gnome Online Accounts"), that's what
I did (I don't use mate and don't have that specific login problem,
but a lot of other stuff shows related troube, timouts, failures, ...).
The real fix would be to figure out how to get the required dbus
services running - gvfs source provides some systemd units, which
are not that helpful for us (obvious reasons, yeah).
On the other hand, I'm not that interested in the whole online-accounts
integration; I'm an old-timer and prefer to not to depend too hard
on other people's systems for my personal stuff (ObPicture: old man
yells at cloud).
Depending on the feasibility of making those dbus services work,
perhaps the default setting for the GOA option should be unset?
But then I don't consider myself a typical enough user to have
much say on that.
Regards,
Christoph
