Constant problems with "synctex.gz" type of files #986

I work regularly with Latex files. Compilation produces lots of auxiliary files. One of them is a "synctex.gz". I am constantly compiling, sometimes for small changes (like edits to graphs, correct math formulas, etc). All the files sync fine but the "synctex.gz" ones usually have problems. I get the message "the file is constantly being updated" or so. Which is true, but so are the other auxiliary files.

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04. I did never had this problems before and have been using latex with mega in the same way for more than 7 years. I think it relates to the big update, 5.0. Not sure if related to other open issues about Linux.

I have been facing the same issue. When I am working with latex, I have to pause sync and resume after I stop using latex. Very annoying.
