Description Miro Hrončok 2018-05-04 22:54:10 UTC

Description of problem:
When ownCloud client is running, my inotify resources are exhausted.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
owncloud-client-2.4.0-2.fc28.x86_64

How reproducible: consistently with my account and data


Steps to Reproduce:
1. run owncloud client
2. run tail -f <somefile>

Actual results:
tail: inotify resources exhausted
tail: inotify cannot be used, reverting to polling

Expected results:
inotify resources should not be exhausted

Additional info:
Thunar fails to refresh files in an opened window and that makes it unusable. 
Evince doesn't refresh files automatically when rebuilt (e.g. with TeX).
This has been affecting my system for a logn time and I assumed something si wrong but couldn't figure out what. Until I run tail -f and I've seen that message.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life.
On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
