Yes
[Linux] Having same case-insensitive named assets causes infinite import looping
To reproduce:
1) Create a new project
2) Create two sprites in Project Browser
3) Rename them outside of Unity (through Files, for example) so that they're the same name, just with changed case (for example, "square" and "Square")
Expected: Unity either displays one of them or renames it automatically to avoid the identical naming (as OS'es like Windows don't support it)
Actual: An infinite loop is made as it tries to import the two objects. If you rename one of them in Files to break the loop, the project browser is flooded with garbage until you do "Reimport All"
Reproduced in 2019.3.0a1 (although it's much slower here), 2019.3.0b8, 2020.1.0a1, 2020.1.0a11
Not reproduced in 2019.2.5f1, 2019.2.11f1

This happened to me on Unity 2019.4.0 (LTS) just recently.
Looking forward to a fix, happy to help or provide any details I can. -

The same happened for me on Fedora 32, when I focused an object.
