OK, it's got worse in Trusty, now it's polling even more directories that don't exist:
inotify_add_watch(9, "/usr/local/share/applications", IN_MODIFY|IN_ATTRIB|IN_CLOSE_WRITE|IN_MOVED_FROM|IN_MOVED_TO|IN_CREATE|IN_DELETE|IN_DELETE_SELF|IN_MOVE_SELF|IN_UNMOUNT|IN_ONLYDIR) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) inotify_add_watch(9, "/usr/share/ubuntu/applications", IN_MODIFY|IN_ATTRIB|IN_CLOSE_WRITE|IN_MOVED_FROM|IN_MOVED_TO|IN_CREATE|IN_DELETE|IN_DELETE_SELF|IN_MOVE_SELF|IN_UNMOUNT|IN_ONLYDIR) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) inotify_add_watch(9, "/home/king/.kde/share/apps/RecentDocuments", IN_MODIFY|IN_ATTRIB|IN_CLOSE_WRITE|IN_MOVED_FROM|IN_MOVED_TO|IN_CREATE|IN_DELETE|IN_DELETE_SELF|IN_MOVE_SELF|IN_UNMOUNT|IN_ONLYDIR) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) poll([{fd=10, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}], 2, 3997) = 0 (Timeout) Why does this have to be every 4 seconds? That's sucking power on an idle system. ** Changed in: zeitgeist (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: ubuntu-power-consumption Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/934156 Title: zeitgeist-datahub is calling inotify_add_watch() on .kde RecentDocuments every 4 seconds and failing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-consumption/+bug/934156/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
