Public bug reported: Check the attached screenshot, x out of y (denoted by x/y) in copy progress is somehow bugged. In this scenario the x goes above y which shouldn't be allowed.
That means that maybe the initial calculation in large number of files is bugged. A solution without compromising performance is that as soon as you start going up, at the end you also increase the total count before actually increasing x. But that would be kind of like a work- around. The best thing would be to check the counting of actual files copied as well as the calculation of initial total number of files during the beginning of copy ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: nautilus 1:3.36.2-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-29.33-generic 5.4.30 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-29-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue May 19 15:00:59 2020 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-05-18 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200423) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_IN:en PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_IN SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: nautilus UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) usr_lib_nautilus: ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug focal ** Attachment added: "See the files copied / total file values" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879468/+attachment/5373995/+files/nautilus_bug.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879468 Title: The copy progress shows more number of files copied than the total files present for large number of file transfer from external harddisk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1879468/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
