Installer thrashes disk looking for desktop file it didn't create ----------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBDS-1939 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-1939 Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio) Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: installer Affects Versions: 4.0.0.GA, 5.0.0.M3 Environment: Linux (Fedora 16) Reporter: James Livingston Assignee: Nick Boldt When installing JBDS, you are given the option of creating a "Start Menu" entry for it. On Linux at least, if you uncheck that box and press Next it runs a script (/tmp/jdbs-desktop-chmod-$RANDOM.sh) which executes "find $HOME -name JBoss-Developer-Studio-5.0.0.M4*.desktop". My desktop has appromiately 1.6 million files under $HOME, and that step thrashes my disk for 10 minutes. I'm not sure why it is trying to find the desktop file since I chose not to create one. In addition, searching my entire home directory for it is not a good idea since it could take a very long time. Is there a reason it is looking for a .desktop file when I told it not to create one? It should already know where it is if it created one, and there is unlikely to be one if it didn't.
