Just got greeted by this error message (see title) when attempting to access my Nextcloud storage (dav://192.168.100.105:30027/remote.php/dav/files/dad) in GNOME Nautilus. Yesterday it was working fine.
Yeah, thanks. I figured out eventually that gvfs-dnssd was missing. I installed it, and everything works fine. Interestingly, however, that package seems to have been removed recently (and surreptitiously) from blendOS. as I had no problem accessing WebDAV shares when I installed blendOS a week ago.
blendOS, while being Arch-based, seems to handle things differently though. It appears to be a container-based, atomic or immutable distribution with the ability to install native Arch packages. So I’m not really sure what happened there.
But I definitely don’t think WebDAV is disappearing from GNOME, or even that it’s generally ‘on its way out’.
