[Bug 1322925] Re: [SRU] Copy, paste stops working randomly in Ubuntu 14.04 nautilus

 

I just installed Ubuntu 15.04 RTM, and faced out with multiple problems
with the copying files from HDD to USB flash-drive.

1. Not all files copied! You can't be sure that all what you selected is really copied. 
2. You can delete folders in USB drive (Directory is not empty).
3. The copied files are corrupted sometimes.
4. You can't even formate the drive.
5. The progress bar of the copying process moves very quickly, but after this window disappears, you have to wait until this process will be really finished (in background), e.g. if you try to unmount/safely remove USB, you'll get the warning, that the drive is still busy or something like that.

Non of described above issue doesn't happen with the same USB drive on
Windows or on Fedora 21, thus it seems to be an Ubuntu specific case.

P.S. I'm in shock that this kind of critical issue is not fixed for
during one year and even new releases (14.10 LTS, 15.04) comes with such
extremely important bug, when you can't rely on OS in the data copying
process.

Bug description:
  The title says it.

  Since upgrade to 14.04, copy / cut / paste of files among various
  folders I have write rights on does not work most of the times.

  Using the terminal to copy / move does work normally.

  nautilus:
    Installed: 1:3.10.1-0ubuntu9.1
    Candidate: 1:3.10.1-0ubuntu9.1
    Version table:
   *** 1:3.10.1-0ubuntu9.1 0
          500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       1:3.10.1-0ubuntu8 0
          500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages

  [Test Case]

  1. Open a Nautilus window and switch to List view
  2. Go to location with write permission
  3. Select a file and try to rename.
  4. When prompted to rename (filename becomes a text entry), open new tab.
  5. Select a file, try to copy and paste. You will see that file is not copied and pasted.
  6. Go back to original tab. If the file that was selected in step 3 is still selected, unselect it.
  7. Try to copy and paste. It should work.
  8. Try to rename again, and open new tab.
  9. Close old tab, and try to copy and paste. It won't work, and there is no way to restore, except opening a new window.

  [Regression Potential]
