Title:
Privacy settings don't affect Gnome recently-used list.
Status in Privacy Manager for Zeitgeist:
Fix Committed
Status in “activity-log-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Blocking directories or apps, or clearing the history entirely in the
Privacy settings pane does not prevent files in those directories or
opened by those applications from appearing in the Gnome "Recent
Files" list in file open/save dialogs. This second log is stored in
"~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel".
While I accept that the activity log manager cannot control the
monitoring of each individual program, I expected that it would
control the *global* recent files list.
Short term: If there is no way to offer the same control, maybe an
option to disable it (writing "gtk-recent-files-max-age=0" to
~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini apparently does that) with an
appropriate notice. Also, clearing the zeitgeist history should clear
the recently-used history.
Noteworthy: in my searches to make sure my bug report was original, I
came across a few people who had the complaint about the "Recent
Files" list and I saw a number of replies telling them to use the
Privacy pane.
