The warning tells us that it is an older gio version, which doesn't want to speak about its implementation details.

That's OK. gio doesn't know Tramp and its syntax :-) > 14:39:28.298343 tramp-sh-gio-monitor-process-filter (6) # # > > (gio monitor:27194): GLib-GIO-%1b[1;33mWARNING%1b[0m **: > %1b[34m14:39:28.217%1b[0m: Can't find module 'help' specified in GIO_USE_FILE_MONITOR And here's the problem.
