Title:
Evolution not deleting autosave files
Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Running Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS. Evolution v3.44.1-0ubuntu1
was installed with the distribution on a new system and received
settings imported from an earlier version on another computer.
When composing an email, if the process takes long enough an autosave
file is created as ~/.local/share/evolution/.evolution-
composer.autosave-xxxxxx ("xxxxxx" is a random 6 character string).
When the email is successfully sent, the autosave file SHOULD be
deleted. It's not. When evolution is shut down and restarted I'm asked
if I want to recover an unfinished email. Answering No to this will
delete the autosave file, but otherwise it persists and the recovery
query recurs the next time I open evolution.
Other people are having the same issue, see
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/1972. The Gnome
people aren't dealing with it, perhaps considering it a distro-
specific bug.
On a system used by many people this is a potential security issue.
