gvfsd-metadata - Metadata daemon for gvfs

gvfsd-metadata is a daemon acting as a write serialiser to the internal gvfs metadata storage. It is
       autostarted by GIO clients when they make metadata changes. Read operations are done by client-side GIO
       code directly, and don't require the daemon to be running.

       The gvfs metadata capabilities are used by the nautilus file manager, for example.

       On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
