I can confirm this. Also Ubuntu (Gnome) has this fixed. > I wish I didn't have to justify these kinds of things, but it seems that there is a defensive attitude toward reports of unintuitive UI behavior
Deleting a file makes it gone, this is fundamental computer behavior.
Anyway, I agree that we could copy the wallpaper into a cache location, since it might have been downloaded into a /tmp location or selected from a network share and thus gone after a restart without user interaction. However, it's not feasible for the slideshow wallpaper, just the one for single images.
Kai, this is the kind of response I'm talking about. Perhaps you don't have as much experience helping people use their computers. You have to try to look at things from their perspective, and I can can tell you from experience that explaining "fundamental computer behavior" doesn't work. Note that we've had multiple reports about us not running updating a cache if a file on disk at a given path has changed which is the exact opposite of this. *** Bug 408223 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I've submitted a patch to fix this: https://phabricator.kde.org/D26720 *** Bug 424226 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
