Hi everyone Since upgrading to Linux Mint 22 Wilma and vim 9.1.x, I noticed an issue with vim when editing remote files (eg mounted via sftp through caja): saving the file would fail. Not ideal... Looks like there is an issue with gvfs mounted file systems: https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/5309 https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/5237#issuecomment-1366262853 Disabling the creation of backup files avoids the issue: :set backupcopy=no Or, if you want to automate it based on path, you can place the following in your .vimrc: autocmd BufRead,BufNewFile /run/user/* set backupcopy=no Cheers, Peter
