Bug Description
I am trying to use the "Import Clip Art..." feature in inkscape 0.91, installed in a Kubuntu 14.04 from the following ppa repository:
deb http://
$ apt-cache policy inkscape
inkscape:
Installed: 0.91.0+
Candidate: 0.91.0+
Version table:
*** 0.91.0+
500 http://
100 /var/lib/
0.
500 http://
The "Import Clip Art" dialog comes up, but no matter what I search I get no results.
The following error is printed in the console:
(inkscape:5338): glibmm-CRITICAL **:
unhandled exception (type Glib::Error) in signal handler:
domain: g-io-error-quark
code : 15
what : The specified location is not supported

You need gvfs (with http/https support, used via GIO) for this to work. Not an inkscape issue - AFAIU this is about runtime config of the local system, and its support for GIO modules (Glib).
