Bug#756205: gvfs-daemons: gvfsd-metadata continuously does disk accesses

[Vincent Lefevre]

Package: gvfs-daemons
Version: 1.20.2-1
Severity: important

gvfsd-metadata continuously does disk accesses. It creates files
in /home/vinc17/share/gvfs-metadata, thne erase them, and so on,
several times per second, in such a point that files have already
disappeared when doing a "ls -l". For instance, at 16:05:53,

$ ll /home/vinc17/share/gvfs-metadata
ls: cannot access /home/vinc17/share/gvfs-metadata/home-81e9d6c5.log.DOTOJX: No such file or directory
total 236
