Comment (by toruser23):
This has changed from a slight information leak to a more annoying problem
in tbb 3.5. This now causes gvfsd-metadata to hold open file handles in
the tbb directory itself:
gvfsd-met 16712 user mem REG 254,0 32768 1320143 /media/usb/tor-
browser_en-US/.local/share/gvfs-metadata/uuid-306b4a6d-65c2-4d17-8696
-97cca175bf5d-ffd15c89.log
These file handles persist after closing the browser and trying to eject
the removal media causing errors on dismounting because a file is still
held open by a process. I think this obviously needs to be fixed as it
prevents tbb being "portable" in a sense.
