Package: gedit Version: 2.26.1-1 Severity: normal gedit saves the current cursor position in each file it edits in ~/.cache/gedit/gedit-metadata.xml . In an effort to make it stop that, I found and unset /apps/gedit-2/preferences/editor/cursor_position/restore_cursor_position. This stopped gedit from actually *using* the metadata, but did not stop it from *saving* the metadata.
Please make gedit stop saving the cursor position when told not to use it. If /apps/gedit-2/preferences/editor/cursor_position/restore_cursor_position should not control this, then perhaps a new preference /apps/gedit-2/preferences/editor/cursor_position/save_cursor_position could. Either way, I'd like some way to disable this behavior. - Josh Triplett -- Package-specific info: Active plugins: - modelines - spell - time - docinfo No plugin installed in $HOME.
