[Bug 1768521] Re: ghost files remain after moving files
It's hard to believe, the issue is still present with 4.18.4 after many years. If such a basic operation fails, it causes a lot of confusion that leads to mistakes causing unwanted file deletion and consequently it discourages newbies from using Linux.

(besides that it does not fix the actual problem) Attached a patch which fixes the actual problem, which is the permanent re-creation of the file monitor on each refresh of the folder.

Created attachment 8693 a better patch The actual problem of the ghost files is triggered because the used FileMonitor is destroyed and re-created on each "thunar_folder_reload". Because of that, some notifications of the FileMonitor are lost, leading to missing folder reloads. While trying to figure out why one would want to destroy the FileMonitor on each folder_reload, I found that we currently use a deprecated FileMonitor flag "G_FILE_MONITOR_SEND_MOVED". See details here: https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/GFile.html#G-FILE-MONITOR-SEND-MOVED:CAPS Since sooner or later we need to exchange this flag, I just did so (See patch) to my suprise fixing the deprecated enum item as well fixed this bug. However I dont fully understand the new functionallity yet, since it looks like only "G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_MOVED_OUT" is triggered, the other are not, while it looks like there are no regressions. On top I still need to figure out if it makes sense at all to destroy and re-create the FileMonitor. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768521 Title: ghost files remain after moving files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunar/+bug/1768521/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for that hint ! Before going for a central reload queue, I'll see if I can find a more simple fix. My plan would be to add a minimal delay before doing a reload of a specific thunar-folder (via g_timeout_add). And after that delay, only the latest "reload trigger" is considered, so that burst-triggers only result in a single reload. .. will see if I can come up with some patch soon.

[Bug 1768521]
Last time I worked on thunar code, that reload stuff was a big mess and did not even work for jobs (copying, moving files). What makes it more complicated is that there are folder reloads and file reloads. I couldn't fix it completely, and if you change one part, it often breaks the other parts. I believe the proper solution would be to create a reload queue that gets processed regularly (e.g. while idle) and confined to a single place. That way, reloads could also be prioritized if necessary and perhaps unneeded/duplicate reloads could even be avoided (network accesses for example are quite expensive regarding performance). It could be more complicated than the current implementation, but the current implementation looks also complicated and is hard to understand, so maybe it doesn't matter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768521 Title: ghost files remain after moving files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunar/+bug/1768521/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

- Removing "thunar_folder_file_changed" is not an option, because like that, "mv test1 test2" in an open folder will not be recognized by thunar. - Removing only the if (G_UNLIKELY (folder->corresponding_file == file)) is as well bad, since this will cause many unnecesarry folder reloads. The Problem comes from "thunar_folder_reload" beeing executed repeatedly. Each reload stops a job and than starts a new job. A stopped, stopped/unfinished job may lead to: (thunar:2655): thunar-CRITICAL **: thunar_folder_finished: assertion 'folder->content_type_idle_id == 0' failed That will cause the view to dont update. ... to be further investigated -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1768521 Title: ghost files remain after moving files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/thunar/+bug/1768521/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Public bug reported: An old bug still persisting in thunar. Move files. Most disappear from the source window but frequently the last one remains as a ghost file. You have to manually refresh the view to remove it. The window should refresh itself after the transaction is completed.
