Description

testing for IN_CREATE in lib/autogeneration.py was probably made to handle symlinks (as kb told me), nevertheless it would also catch other files and the delay before really generating things may not be sufficient in cas of a long download over a not so fast connection.

When the event was generated by IN_CREATE the program should probably check which kind of files was created and only handle symlinks (and dirs?), but not normal files.
