[Bug 992430] Re: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data
Sorry, Paul, but I have lost my faith in the idea of volunteer support without strict oversight (which I gather is how things are working here). There have been too many problem that I felt were important that were graded low importance or even placed on the wishlist. I get the strong impression that this is the consequence of essentially a CLI mindset while the rest of the world is GUI. I plan to one day write to Canonical about this, but I have other priorities. Meanwhile I am happy to let this one expire.

Humphrey, We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu and GNOME since that time. Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) reached end-of-life on April 28, 2017. Have you seen a similar problem related to the one that you reported in any upgrades that you have done since that time? Please let us know if you have otherwise this bug report will expire in approximately 60 days time. Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.

not sure what you call the upgrader but the Ubuntu dist-upgrader doesn't access user' configurations, if there is a bug it's somewhere in gedit or in the user session softwares -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992430 Title: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/992430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well, whatever is the case, the dirs+content dispappeared and that should not have happened. IMO that points to the existence of a bug somewhere.

[Bug 992430] Re: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data
Thank you for your bug report, from what version did you upgrade? Did you have custom datas in those dirs? It's weird that an upgrade would change user files.. ** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete ** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992430 Title: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/992430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 992430] Re: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data
I originally installed 11.10 which then upgraded itself to whatever. The data in those dirs was indeed custom data - as required by gedit - see: http://live.gnome.org/Gedit/NewLanguage Fortunately, I could recover the missing files from elsewhere. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992430 Title: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/992430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 992430] Re: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data
seems like an upstream bug, the installer or upgrader don't access user datas nor change those, if something changed that dir it's likely the new gedit itself when first ran, maybe they migrated those datas to a new location... ** Changed in: gedit (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992430 Title: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/992430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 992430] Re: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data
I searched the disk and the files were not found (I did include hidden and system files), ergo the dirs + content were wiped, ergo 'they' (of gedit) did not migrate those datas, ergo the upgrader must have been at fault. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992430 Title: ubuntu update to 12.04 LTS wipes ~/.local data To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/992430/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
