Title:
  Caja thumbnails are deleted during each login and logout! (only on
  32bit)

Status in mate-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in mate-settings-daemon source package in Xenial:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I tested the new Mint 17.2 MATE rc.
  Whenever I logout all thumbnail files in ~/.cache/thumbnails/normal/* are deleted.
  I did not find the exact culprit. What I found out so far:

      - "caja -q" does not delete the thumbnails
      - write-protecting helps: "chmod a-w ~/.cache/thumbnails/normal"
      - a script in /etc/X11/Xreset.d/ is called too late to prevent the deletion
      - symbolic linking ~/.cache/thumbnails from or to ~/.thumbnails does not help

  First I tried this with a Live USB stick. Then I thought it might be a
  special "feature" for USB sticks. So I updated my Mint 17.1 to 17.2.
  But thumbnails on a harddrive are lost too during logout. To upgrade I
  followed http://mintguide.org/system/448-early-update-linux-mint-17-1

  Fedora seems to have had this problem too:
