Well Thank you Michael!
Your patch worked like a charm with Thunar/Nautilus and samba-shares and broke nothing :-)! It introduced some timeout problems to ftp-connections, but I really don't care. I prefer using Filezilla and TLS.
Can I ask you two more things? -If i file a bug report, should I mention your patch or restrict the report to the problems with the v. 1.14.2-2.1.2.x86_64?
You should mention it, but also mention the regression with FTP connections. The maintainers will have to decide if the tradeoff is worth it to do an update for everybody. (Hangs are worse than timeout issues, but breaking something that works 10 months in to a stable release is worse than leaving something that's been broken the whole time.) Glad the build fixed your issue. :)

Yup: Google's spamblocker is excellent, so no need to worry about that. Also, when the mail is archived on lists.opensuse.org, the domain on the address will be censored. Spambots will only see mike.catanzaro@xxxx or lars.edman@xxxx
