Created attachment 1418253 [details] Samples of dosuments states opened from Nautilus Recent Description of problem: as a result of an upgrade from Fedora Desktop v. 27 to v. 28 beta, Items permissions were not preserved in Recent. Recent is durably corrupted in such a way so that documents which are editable at their respective locations are now automatically set to read-only when they are opened from Recent. Version-Release number of selected component: nautilus.x86_64 3.28.0.1-1.fc28 (component involved possibly different) How reproducible: Assumed that –on Gnome– Settings -> Privacy -> Usage History option is set to On (ideally with option Retain set o Forever for this testing case). Execute 'dnf system-upgrade -y download --refresh–releasever=28'. Actual results: Nautilus' items listed in Recent –which were all local– have all been changed to read-only (attachments). None of them were with those read-sets before the upgrade took place. Applying to them the option Remove from Recent and then opening items from their respective locations, and then renewing the openings From Recent has no effect on the existing states (read-only). Expected results: Recent not to be corrupted that way. Additional info: In Gnome.
Operation was applied today to an other laptop with the same effects.
Issue not tied specifically to component dnf-plugin-system-upgrade, since it occurs as well in context of a fresh install from Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-28-1.1.iso image file.
If this is happening with dnf system-upgrade and also with fresh installation it can't be caused by Anaconda. Anaconda is not used at all by dnf system-upgrade. For me this looks like a gnome component is broken when upgraded/installed on Fedora 28. Changing component to gnome-shell they should have better idea which component is responsible for these recent documents.
gnome-shell isn't involved at all here, let's try gvfs' recent backend ...
It is nautilus issue, see: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/378
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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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.
Fedora 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
