Nick Boldt commented on JBDS-1939:
----------------------------------
On which linux are you running?
Also, do you have the following files/folders?
{code}
$HOME/Desktop (folder)
$HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs (file)
{code}
If not, where are they equivalently located?
The user-direct.dirs file should have an entry in it like this:
{code}
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
{code}
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.
