file-roller should use $XDG_CACHE_HOME or have an option to select a different directory for caching.
When users' home directories are on a remote machine and mounted via NFS, then file-rollers' habit of creating ~/.fr-* directories, extracting there and moving back the result creates huge i/o-loads. If $XDG_CACHE_HOME would be used, one could direct ~/.cache to some local directory (which we already did). If that's not possible maybe there is a possibility to define a different extracting directory, e.g. by start variable or in the menu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/762306 Title: Doesn't follow XDG_CACHE_HOME To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/762306/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
