When I was hovering a savegame, the game said
File Size: 0.5xx MB
but when I hover all the files for that savegame, thunar says they are around 1
MB big.

It also seems like the bkp files were not removed deleting the savegame.
I assume they are missing in the calculation.

The calculation is that of the .savegame only. Not .shp, not .bkp, not thumbnail.

I'm not sure why we even show this value.

So this isn't a bug, but we need to decide what to do about this feature that is
in my opinion useless.

Marking as "feature".

I'll make a separate item about the bkp files not being deleted.

Adding a link to issue 530, which advocates displaying information about the
game's progress rather than the size of the save-game.

Moving to "minor", as I think it is a better classification of this issue.
