DavDrive and Nautilus

If you are using DavDrive in combination with Ubuntu you might notice a bug which prevents you from copying directories from your Android device when using Natilus.
This is not a DavDrive bug but a Nautilus/gvfs bug which is present for more than two years.

For more detail see the Ubuntu bug report #267642.

When copying a directory with Natilus only a file containing the directory listing is produced:

Result of Nautilus directory copy

The bug report mentions a workaround:
Copying directories is possible by using a shell and accessing the ~/.gvfs folder directly.

Directory copy from Shell

Hopefully this nasty bug will be fixed soon.
