Auto-purge old temporary feed downloads

Created on 3 August 2016, almost 9 years ago

Updated 30 March 2023, over 2 years ago

Problem/Motivation

HttpFetcher stores downloaded feeds in temporary://. file_cron() deletes old files from temporary:// but only managed files (with status != permanent). The Feeds files will stay forever unless they are deleted externally (e.g. server reboot?)

Proposed resolution

Delete feeds files during a cleanup phase in cron?
