My brother just lost several hours' worth of work because of this "feature" of Ubuntu. Needless to say, the chances of him ever considering using Ubuntu in the future are now precisely zero. As you can imagine, he was fairly vocal about what he thought of Ubuntu, and quite frankly, I couldn't think of anything to say in Ubuntu's defense.
Why would "Linux For Human Beings" assume that anyone knew about this behaviour? I've been using Ubuntu for many years and didn't know about it. As it stands, this is nothing less than Ubuntu deleting your files without asking and without warning. I can't see any reason why this would be considered anything other than a bug in Ubuntu's design. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/435930 Title: Guest session does not warn about temporary nature of files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm-guest-session/+bug/435930/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
