Public bug reported:

After logging in in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (all updates installed to date), an
existing file ~/.recently-used.xbel disappears each time, which makes it
easy to reproduce.

vmware player 4.0.x uses this file (probably via gtk) to store its list
of recently opened VMs. Because this files gets deleted just after
logging in, the list of available VMs in vmware player will be empty,
and will have to be recreated.

I have been unable to find which process deletes this file, or why.
Apparently apparmor might have to do something with it (see apparmor
config file), but I don't think so, since changing its config file to
exclude this file doesn't resolve it.

In my opinion deleting this file is a bug, or at least an undocumented
feature where there should be an option to avoid the deletion.
