Description Wendy Hu 2008-02-22 02:25:52 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Note that after having copied a CD, the iso image created for the copy remains in /var/tmp. This could (if burning many different cd's/dvd's) fill the systems partition.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Insert a data CD;
2. When the desktop icon appears, right click on it and select "copy";
3. Follow prompts on screen until the new CD has been copied.


Actual results:
The iso image created for the copy remain in the directory "/var/tmp".

Expected results:
Either nautilus should clean the iso image out when the copy operation has been completed or user should be prompted to manually remove it, if it is no longer required.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.
