(In reply to VVD from comment #2)
gvfs is not designed to be needed during the build. gvfs provides GLib modu=
les
and a FUSE service. Most applications use gvfs via GLib API, so compiling t=
hem=20
successfully without gvfs does not mean they don't need gvfs at runtime.

(In reply to VVD from comment #3)
gvfs is needed for GLib to mount network shares, such as FTP, SFTP, SMB,
WebDAV. I think it is correct for nautilus to depend on gvfs by default bec=
ause
accessing network shares is an important feature of nautilus.
