[Bug 1295344] [NEW] galley-app is removing media files from disk

 

Public bug reported:

We verified that in some scenarios, usually during situations that could
generated a inconsistency between gallery database and the files found
by the gallery monitoring process, gallery is removing from media files
from disk. Checking the code, we see that when gallery check this kind
of inconsistency it uses a destroy function to remove the file from the
database/monitoring process to sanitize all the information. One of the
option of this destroy function is delete files from disk and this
options is set as true.
