JT - Yeah. I figured out why everyone ignored me. Apparently Linux has
this nice little command called "patch" which 'patches' an original file
with the 'new.patch' file. I didn't do the patch as it's for an older
version of gvfs than what I have and I didn't know how that would affect my
system, nor did I know how to update it for my version, but basically you
say "patch [options] <original file> <patch file> at the CLI. So basically
the originally installed file that isn't authenticating when browsing gets
all the additions from the text file darkrain42 made. You select all text
and save it as "whatever.patch". I still don't know which original gvfs
file to patch but you can get an idea, I think from looking in synaptic at
the gvfs files, and then look at the tab that lists where all the installed
files are.
For more reading do "man patch" at the CLI and it tells you how .patch files
are made but I'm waiting on an official backport (or until I figure out how
to safely patch my system ;-p) as it's not a show stopper for me at the
moment.
