Public bug reported: Binary package hint: konqueror
This is in gutsy, but was in dapper (and presumably every release in between). 1. Create a large file hierarchy (by "large", I mean one that contains hundreds of thousands of directories and a million or more files). 2. Using konqueror, initiate a copy of the entire hierarchy to another destination. 3. After a while, hit cancel. (konqueror takes forever even to figure out what to copy, but that's a different bug) 4. konqueror will *appear* to have ceased the operation after you hit "cancel". At this point you can even quit konqueror and it will *appear* to close. 5. However, konqueror will continue to perform disk operations for many hours. Running "top" confirms that the process consuming the CPU time is konqueror; and the hard drive stays continuously lit. This is completely reproducible. (Running amd64 gutsy on a dual-core machine.) ** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- cancelling massive konqueror file operations does not cause konqueror to properly cease disk operations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/176152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
