Bug ID: 499400
Summary: Dolphin emits a system log message for every file
moved across file systems
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 24.12.1
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

dolphin file operation logged in system log
SUMMARY
For every file copied or moved across a file system border (tested here with
btrfs from/to xfs or btrfs subvolume to btrfs subvolume) a message is created
in the system log including the full transactions paths.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. E.g. on btrfs create a subvolume A and a subvolume B
2. Touch a new file on subvolumeA
2. Move that file from subvolume A to subvolume B
See also attached example video
OBSERVED RESULT
A log entry is generated: dolphin[]: kf.kio.workers.file: copy() QUrl("<source
parh>) to QUrl("<target path>") mode= 420
EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should not emit a message for every copied file.
Copying a lot of files in 100+ or worst case 10k+ range completely floods the
system log making it very hard to use.
While rather abstract there is an argument leaking meta information. E.g. a
user can move a file to the trash and delete it, but on btrfs this still move
the file across subvolumes logging it.
