Hi Daniel, I did that a few days ago. The extension that triggers the problem is gsconnect. There is a related open bug on that extension at https://github.com/GSConnect/gnome-shell-extension-gsconnect/issues/1028 I waited to report it here because we were doing some investigations then I forgot.

This bug started happening on my laptop after installing 16.04. With 12.04 there never was any problem and I never had this problem with an older laptop, from 8.04 to 15.10. I'm running XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME-Flashback:Unity Given the suggestion at #17 I'll open a new bug for that DE.

I'm experiencing this very same problem on a fresh install of 12.04. It didn't happen to my old PC. I realized that it happens when gvfsd-metadata starts taking 100% of one of my CPU cores. That usually happens when I move icons on the desktop (nautilus sends a request to gvfsd-metadata). That

It happened to me on a fresh install of 12.04. It's not about full disk partitions because I'm not even at 50% of my disks. It might be about indexing large files (I downloaded several VMs). Removing the exec permissions on /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-metadata fixes it but I'm losing some functionality.

The importance of this bug for a LTS release shouldn't be set to low. It takes a lot of time to correct the ID3 tags, the fastest way is probably to recover the files from a backup. I'll try to upgrade to 2.97 from the PPA linked in here

Not sure it's worse but it seems not what we are used to. All mail clients I know (and also Thunderbird) create a new file with a full copy of the attachment. That seems to create a link to the attachment. If wonder what happens if one edits the saved attachment (let's say it's a .doc on .odt)
