Description Benjamin Gilbert 2011-01-16 00:09:34 UTC

Description of problem:
Clicking the "Save multipage file" button in the multipage project window leaks file descriptors to the PNM files in the project directory.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.998-1.fc14

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch xsane
2. Set the scan target to "multipage"
3. Enter a path in the multipage project window and click "Create project"
4. Click "Scan" in the main window
5. Click "Save multipage file"

Actual results:
xsane opens file descriptors to the PNM files in the project directory which remain open until the program exits.

Expected results:
xsane does not leak file descriptors.

Additional info:
This is a problem if the project directory is stored in NFS.  The natural next action after "Save multipage file" is to press "Delete project", but since the PNM files are still open, NFS renames them to .nfsXXXXXXX rather than deleting them outright.  The rmdir of the project directory then silently fails because the directory is not empty.  The .nfsXXXXXXX files go away after xsane exits, but the empty project directory does not.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-16 19:41:19 UTC

This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained.  At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this 
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

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

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached 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 to click on 
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that 
version of Fedora.

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.

The process we are following is described here:
