Description Ray K. 2011-06-07 15:22:34 UTC

Description of problem:
 GtkFileChooserDialog will lock up if an attempt is made to save with an empty filename.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 Confirmed to occur in at least gtk2-2.10.4-21.el5_5.6. Believed to have been present in at least one earlier release.

How reproducible:
 Invariably.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open gedit (or any other GTK+ application built with a recent RHEL5 gtk+).
2. Select File -> Save As.
3. Delete the default filename from the chooser, leaving the field empty.
4. Click the Save button.

Actual results:
 The application locks up.

Expected results:
 A nonfatal user error is reported.

Additional info:
 Appears to be due to an infinite loop in gtk_file_chooser_default_should_respond(), in gtkfilechooserdefault.c. (The upstream implementation looks good, although I haven't tested it.)
