Ubuntu-MATE has some very sensible features, especially the drawer
system, which seem to be decades ahead of other GUIs, especially the
boys and girls from Redmond.

Yeah, one can get into trouble trying to do an end-run around
distribution packaging systems. Been there, done that, when
circumstances required it, but there are frequently "issues".

I'm sure y'all will be pushing a fix for libcanberra into the Ubuntu
22.04 update stream, so I'll probably just put up with the annoyance in
Evolution and wait for the fix.

I dropped him a thank you note too :)

Title:
  Evolution not deleting autosave files

Status in Evolution:
  Unknown
Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in libcanberra package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  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.
