Bug ID: 514361
Summary: Stopp writing unnecessary
ApplicationStartCount/ApplicationTime
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Debian stable
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I launch & close following software:
- Dolphin
- System Settings
your software writes a file to /home/(username)/.config/kde.org/ every time I
close the software:
[UserFeedback]
ApplicationStartCount=35
ApplicationTime=2695197
Can you stop this? Why do you need to write this every single time? I alraedy
disabled telemetry(feedback) and I expect your software NOT to write anything
except my settings.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch "Dolphin" and "System Settings"
2. Close both
3. Compare /home/(username)/.config/kde.org/UserFeedback.org.kde.*.conf files
4. Repeat 1-3 to observe changes
OBSERVED RESULT
The [UserFeedback] counter was increased, and the changes actually written to
the disk unnecessarily, resulting in reduce HDD/SSD lifespan.
EXPECTED RESULT
Don't write anything by default, especially the user opt-out the telemetry.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma
