SUMMARY When copying files to a remote sftp share using Dolphin, inotify is not triggered on the remote as it is with other file managers such as Nemo. This appears to be due to the creation of a partial file that is renamed. This paperless issue seems to sum it up. I experienced the same with minidlna. https://github.com/the-paperless-project/paperless/issues/665 I'm not sure if the partial file is a result of Dolphin or the transfer mechanism, but it can cause issues with services that rely on inotify so, if this behavior is desirable, it should be configurable. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open remote directory with Dolphin ex: sftp://server.localnet/srv 2. On remote host run inotifywatch: inotifywatch -v -r /srv 3. In Dolphin copy file OBSERVED RESULT In dolphin: total access modify attrib close_write close_nowrite open create delete filename 13 3 1 2 1 1 2 2 1 /srv EXPECTED RESULT In Nemo: total modify attrib close_write open create filename 9 1 5 1 1 1 /srv SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Fedora Linux 40 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Kernel Version: 6.10.6-200.fc40.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 20 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-1280P Memory: 30.9 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® Graphics ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
