Title: Evolution not deleting autosave files Status in Evolution: Fix Released Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libcanberra package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in libcanberra source package in Jammy: Fix Committed Status in evolution source package in Kinetic: Confirmed Status in libcanberra source package in Kinetic: Fix Committed Bug description: [ Impact ] Autosave files are not removed from evolution local state directories (and windows leaked) [ Test case ] 1. Open evolution, and start to compose a new email 2. Write enough text and wait few minutes so that this command returns a file ls -l ~/.local/share/evolution/.evolution-composer.autosave-* 3. Close the email composer window, hitting "Do not save" 4. ls -l ~/.local/share/evolution/.evolution-composer.autosave-* should list no files 5. Opening and closing again evolution should not ask to restore the previous email [ Regression potential ] No sounds could be performed during some UI actions --- 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.
