Description

Installer should be able to autolaunch GVFS.Service for all logged-in users. But when root user is logged-in and installer is run as a non-root user, the postflight installer script is not being able to launch GVFS.Service for root user. This causes installer to display installation failure dialog (although the product gets installed successfully and is usable.)
