[Bug 669490] [NEW] Needlessly copies all files to /tmp before creating an ISO image

[Paul Rensing]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: brasero

I wanted to create a (large) DVD off of a network drive. I was making
multiple copies, so I explicitly intended to create an ISO file before
burning it.

After I started it, I see the message "Copying files to local
(something)". Looking on my machine, I see that it is trying to copy all
4GB of data into /tmp. Besides the fact that this would completely fill
/tmp and fail, it is totally needless. Creating an ISO image is not time
sensitive. It does not matter if the network is temporarily slow. In
fact, the double copying will almost certainly slow down the whole
process.

Once again, back to K3B.

Running Ubuntu 10.10. Brasero version 2.32.0-0ubuntu2.
