Just updated to glib2 2.66.01 and checked my cifs shares. Can’t copy,remove etc on the remote host via Thunar or PcManFm, since the follwing message occurs:
Error when getting information for file descriptor: Numerical result out of range
The cifs shares are mounted in the home directory (not mnt/) . Ive seen a bug in gnome, but it has been closed.
Does anyone has more infos about this problem?
If you just updated your system, fully updated it, please reboot.
That I did, then I tested it.
The same problem occurs on my other machine with Arch Linux.
Reverting to glib2-2.64.5-1 “solves” the issue.
In the bug mentioned above was one line that fits my setup:
This can also happen when at least some configurations of CIFS are mounted as a local VFS mount point.
The last comment mentions that:

And probably this commit will get to next update:
Yep - I wasn’t sure if that patch has already made its way to manjaro… So I’ll wait for the next update. Thank you for your help - marking it solved
I have the same problem. I tried to downgrade the version of glib2 but then I had trouble starting my computer.
In the meantime I am using midnight commander to copy the files, waiting for an update to fix this problem.
Greetings.
with
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/glib2-2.64.5-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
I could revert it to the previous version (Kernel 5.4.67-1)
I did a downgrade of glib2, but then I had trouble starting the computer, so I returned it to the way it was.
I do not know this command.
But arch just pushed 2.66.1 and it works. So it will be with manjaro shortly !
Meanwhile, installing this https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/glib2/download/ solves the problem. Weird regression. coudn’t copy files between ZFS datasets…
