Is this still the way it works with KDE Frameworks 5.45 or greater? Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and set the bug status as REPORTED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDSINFO status with no change in 30 days, the bug will be closed as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME due to lack of needed information. For more information about our bug triaging procedures please read the wiki located here: https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Bug_triaging If you have already provided the requested information, please set the bug status as REPORTED so that the KDE team knows that the bug is ready to be confirmed. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > Is this still the way it works with KDE Frameworks 5.45 or greater? This report still applies as of KDE Frameworks 5.51. I have my Trash configured to delete files older than 90 days, yet I still have files with ctimes older than 90 days ago in my ~/.local/share/Trash/files directory. Indeed, I still have files with ctimes older than 97 days ago. $ find ~/.local/share/Trash/files -type f -ctime +97 | wc -l 2 $ find ~/.local/share/Trash/files -type f -ctime +98 | wc -l 0 If your assertion is that there is a periodic background process that should be cleaning expired files out of the Trash, then could you tell me how often this process is supposed to run? My KDE session has been logged in continuously for the last 14 days (since 11 October), yet evidently no process has cleaned the Trash. Thanks for the info. #3 from your original three ideas seems like the sanest solution to me. Another data point. I had 3 files in my Trash with ctimes older than 90 days ago. Immediately after I checked this, I moved one file to the Trash (via the context menu in a File Open dialog in a KDE application), and then I immediately checked my Trash again and found 0 files with ctimes older than 90 days ago. So indeed trashing a file triggered the cleanup. It just doesn't trigger spontaneously. *** Bug 451483 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
