I assume that Transmission opens files it's editing in write (or read- write) mode. Why is tracker nosy enough to be indexing things currently open for writing?
I believe this is not a feature to implement in Transmission because it's nothing but a hackish workaround for a deeper problem: Tracker needs a way to tell it to leave a directory or file alone! This probably should be some sort of standardized dbus inhibit call that beagle and friends can use, too. To the bug submitter, we're not trying to say this interaction is not serious (in fact it is quite a pain) or that we are not gonna fix it, just that I'm personally not sure if making a separate "downloading" vs "downloads" dir is a good thing for Tranmission overall or just a way to work around a specific bug on a specific distribution's indexer choice. -- Transmission should use a temp-dir to exclude from indexing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/189439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
