Public bug reported:
I created a watch C program that has different results on Ubuntu than it
does on openSUSE, and the openSUSE results are the ones that I would
expect. Program for reference here:
https://gist.github.com/dradtke/c521a6a3aa831b3e6400
The gist of the program is that it uses inotify to watch for events
related to the file hello.txt and print them out. When I make a change
to the file, I expect that the IN_MODIFY event gets raised, but on
Ubuntu, I instead get this:
IN_MOVE_SELF
IN_ATTRIB
IN_DELETE_SELF
afterwards no more events get generated because the file has been
removed from the watch.
Tested with a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04.
