I have some more information about this problem. It's easy to trigger this bug with the attached code. They key is to rename a non-ignored file to an ignored file (like one that ends with ~). The inotify processor currently ignores this possibility so the rest of the state machine never learns the original file has gone away.
I updated my branch to make the inotify processor synthesize a delete event for this case. I left the check I put in as it just seems safer. I was, for example, able to trigger the bug by setting the file to be totally unreadable after touching it. ** Attachment added: "annoy the sync daemon by renaming a non-ignored file to an ignored file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntuone-client/+bug/580855/+attachment/1496976/+files/annoy.py -- Ubuntu One sync daemon continuously hashing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/580855 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
