[Bug 728700] Re: Nautilus doesn't clean up temporary files from cancelled file copies

[DavidBriscoe]

I'm fairly certain I didn't log out and in. (Maybe I did after the
first occurrence, but I recall doing this several times in
succession.)

I doubt it was lightdm: I reported this on Maverick (10.10). According
to this link [1], lightdm became default in 11.10. I don't tend to run
alphas or nondefault core software.

I also do clean installs for each upgrade and haven't noticed this
issue recently (on precise). (Although, I only noticed before because
I ran out of disk space.)

Title:
  Nautilus doesn't clean up temporary files from cancelled file copies

Status in Nautilus:
  New
Status in “glib2.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  I copied a large file from one partition to another using Nautilus,
  but I cancelled the copy before it completed. There are incomplete
  copies (.goutputstream-2XZIRV) in the destination directory.

  (I actually copied the same file many times because I was testing Bug
  #553256 so I have 13 of these files totalling 4.6 GB!)
