[Bug 761068] Re: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade
I've been getting this error (on the mail/imap directories, not tasks). I don't have time to scrub sensitive data from my mail directories for submission to a public bug tracker this morning, but maybe can get to that sometime in the next week. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761068 Title: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/761068/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I don't think it's quite the same bug... This one has been fixed some time in January or February or so; so you shouldn't still be seeing empty directories such as 'task'. As for the old directories for email accounts, I'd venture this is also that something didn't quite get converted properly, even if all emails show in the directory. Unfortunately, now we don't really have a way to figure out what went wrong seeing as the offending directories were deleted. Do you remember if they contained anything? I'll mark this Invalid since we won't be able to reproduce the issue or diagnose what went wrong in the migration. Let's reopen if there's some other migration that fails or wait for another bug report about this.

[Bug 761068] Re: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade
Well in my latest reproduction, I used data that was exported from current 2.30.3 using the in-app backup tool.. so presumably that does not create any extra directories that don't represent data .. but if you are saying that the backup tool backs-up garbage and other cruft lying around from really old versions of evolution, then I would agree this could be the case. If it retains only well-formed data, then I'd say the bug exists; albeit very minor. In my case, I can reproduce this consistently restoring the backup to a fresh maverick install, and then performing the upgrade. I use PPA's to take maverick to 2.32 rather than do the do-release-upgrade in order to test the upgrade in less than 30 minutes. Upstream they marked this as the same issue you corrected, but if that was already merged then I shouldn't have seen it in my Natty upgrade ten days ago. I bet I can remove ALL my email, contacts, memos and calendars, and do an export of my configuration that would not contain any sensitive data, effectively making it easy for anyone to reproduce - let me know if that would help, as it is probably easy to do in about 30 minutes; (revert snapshot, import full backup data, clean-up, re-backup in 2.30.3, review, upload). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761068 Title: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 761068] Re: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade
Yes. If you can show a case where there is no sensitive data and the upgrade fails, then it's definitely helpful to have a copy of that data to figure out what doesn't get migrated properly. I'd expect it's because of some old config from previous versions though. Also, note that using a PPA for the upgrade might not be the best: if it's the packages for 2.32 on Maverick I uploaded to my PPA some time ago I'm not sure if they contained the patches to properly transition and remove the empty directories ;) ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761068 Title: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 761068] Re: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade
Regarding PPA use, I agree. The original bug was from my 11.04 update (as apport shows). Reproduction using the PPA simply demonstrated to me it is likely a consistent behaviour. Additionallly I wanted to see it on a clean install to rule out other cruft and didn't care to go through a many hours upgrade to execute a single test scenario. My assumption was that this is legacy data. I'll go ahead an create the evolutionbackup.tar.gz and test that it results in the desired scenario, however I have no task data (maybe forgot to mention that) - I don't even recall trying this feature out, so I was surprised to see some structure there.Perhaps it is actually the lack of data combined with some previous migration in an earlier version of evolution that causes this extra directory. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761068 Title: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I had a look at the dates on the file structures, and decided that this is definitely legacy migration issue that can probably be left alone. imac@n8-laptop:~/.evolution/tasks/tasks$ ls -al total 12 drwx-- 3 imac imac 4096 2008-12-23 11:03 . drwx-- 3 imac imac 4096 2011-04-10 11:48 .. drwx-- 2 imac imac 4096 2008-12-23 11:03 views Probably a 2.22 or 2.24 upgrade that created this directory by my guess, and it might have been migrated from an earlier configuration, going right back to pre-1.0 ximian. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761068 Title: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I think we can safely mark this Won't Fix; and reopen/revisit the issue if there are further reports of issues with migrating files. ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/761068 Title: Evolution FAILED: Directory not empty after 2.30-2.32 (Natty) Upgrade -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
