Package: geeqie Version: 1:1.1-7 Severity: normal geeqie writes its own configuration files on every shutdown, independent of need. when the user home resides on a not-so-fast storage (say, network mounted, or, in my case, the sd card main disk of a media pc), this can take up to a second, and even cause xfce4's "application is not responding, shall i kill it?" screen to flicker over the screen.
this could be easily remedied by any of (and ideally all of) only saving on demand, and by reacting to the user request even if there is unfinished business (ie. close the window even before everything is written to disk). thus, responsiveness could be restored. note that this is semi-related to bug#623993: history would probably have to be stored on every shutdown, so only the second part of the solution also works there. (and still, it should go to .local/share). best regards chrysn -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.10-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages geeqie depends on: ii geeqie-common 1:1.1-7 ii libc6 2.17-92+b1 ii libexiv2-12 0.23-1 ii libgcc1 1:4.8.1-10 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.28.2-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.36.4-1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.20-1 ii libjpeg8 8d-1 ii liblcms1 1.19.dfsg-1.2 ii liblircclient0 0.9.0~pre1-1 ii libpango1.0-0 1.32.5-5+b1 ii libstdc++6 4.8.1-10 ii libtiff4 3.9.7-2 Versions of packages geeqie recommends: pn exiftran <none> ii exiv2 0.23-1 ii imagemagick 8:6.7.7.10-6 ii librsvg2-common 2.36.4-2 ii ufraw-batch 0.19.2-2 ii zenity 3.8.0-1 Versions of packages geeqie suggests: pn geeqie-dbg <none> ii gimp 2.8.6-1 ii libjpeg-progs 8d-1 ii ufraw 0.19.2-2 pn xpaint <none> -- no debconf information -- To use raw power is to make yourself infinitely vulnerable to greater powers. -- Bene Gesserit axiom
