Bug Description
Binary package hint: tomboy
After upgrading to 8.04, I noticed that something was hitting the disk every 10 seconds. Some diagnosis shows that the files affected are in ~.wapi, and that those files are being used by Tomboy.
$ while true; do find . -mmin -1 -type f -print0 | xargs -0 ls --full-time -ltr; echo; sleep 1; done

Note that while I only noticed this in 8.04, I can't say for certain that it didn't exist in 7.10 -- just that I never noticed it before.
