            Bug ID: 365571
           Summary: Flickr export plugin not freeing tmp space
           Product: kipiplugins
           Version: 4.14.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Flickr
          Assignee: kde-imaging at kde.org
          Reporter: gweberbh at gmail.com

When exporting to Flickr, the export plugin kipi-flickrexportplugin makes a
copy of the exported images to /tmp/kde-$USER, but these images are not deleted
afterwards. This causes the tmp space to fill up. I've also noticed that a
specific directory is created, e.g., kipi-flickrexportplugin-8204 which is
always empty and also not removed afterwards.

I also noticed that the images are created even when the "Send original file
(no resizing)" is checked. I would not have expected to see the images being
created when no resizing was required, however the images appear to be
different:
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxxx users 14427906 Jul 12 17:58 DSC_0389.jpg
-rw-r--r-- 1 xxxx users 14468759 Jul 14  2014 /home/xxxx/DSC_0389.JPG


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Export images to a Flick account


Actual Results:  
Images are left over in /tmp/kde-$USER, a directory
kipi-flickrexportplugin-<some number> is created but not used.

Expected Results:  
In my understanding temporary images should be removed after export finishes to
avoid filling up temporary space.

Current workaround is to keep an eye on the size of the temporary directory and
manually remove the files after export is completed.
