Issue

1. Nemo doesn't remember the sorting order, the moment I go back or change to another folder it resets the sorting order.
   When running from terminal it gives this error, ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::nemo-icon-view-sort-by not supported

2. Can't use pin option to pin folders, nothing happens when I do so.
   Error generated - ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::pinned-to-top not supported

3. Can't I change the folder icon, nothing happens when I do so.
   Errors generated - ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::custom-icon not supported
ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::custom-icon-name not supported
ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::icon-scale not supported

4. On starting nemo from terminal, it always gives this error - ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::nemo-icon-view-auto-layout not supported

Steps to reproduce

1. Right Click - Arrange items
2. Right Click - Pin
3. Right Click - Properties - Click on folder icon - Select Icon

Expected behaviour

1. Should remember the sorting behavior.
2. Should be able to pin folders.
3. Should be able to apply the new icon to the folder.

Are you using gvfs?

What is the output of:

python3 -c "from gi.repository import Gio; print(Gio.Vfs.get_default().get_supported_uri_schemes())"

and

ps -A | grep gvfs

[vaibd]

For first command - ['file', 'resource']

while second command yields no output.

[mtwebster]

You need to install gvfs:
https://github.com/artix-linux/packages/blob/bd04aceb238cd60225cd26a4df03fecc632c4d9e/gvfs/repos/extra-x86_64/PKGBUILD#L4-L9

[vaibd]

I have it already installed, gvfs-1.48.1-1

[mtwebster]

It's not running - maybe it's disabled for some reason. There are additional gvfs packages as well, that add support for additional filesystems, though it looks as though the 'core' functionality should be in the main package.

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about that distro, you may have to seek more assistance with others that use/support it.

Any update here? Were you able to get it working?

[vaibd]

I tried fixing gvfs but nothing worked, there is a gvfs-runit package but it fails on installation no matter what I do.

However, today I found that everything works fine with dbus-launch nemo so, is this a dbus error?
