Hide Forgot
Description of problem: This isn't a gedit bug, but I've no idea which component is right. The symptom can be seen in gedit though. The "save as" dialog box doesn't behave correctly when given a full pathname. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gedit-2.7.90-1 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start gedit 2. Ctrl-Shift-S to "Save As" 3. Type a full pathname with a leading '/', such as '/tmp/foo' 4. Click Save Actual results: Nothing happens. Expected results: File should be saved and dialog should disappear.
Tim, is this only when the file /tmp/foo already exists? I have the feeling this bug has something to do with one of these: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150852 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146185
No, it happens with any full pathname with a leading '/'. There is no error dialog, it's just that nothing happens (and especially: not the save). In fact the behaviour I see with current rawhide is that the 'Save in folder' drop-down changes from 'Home' to 'Desktop' -- but the file is not saved, even though I gave a full path and clicked the save button.
Cannot reproduce with 2.7.92-1, seems to be fixed (also is probably a GTK bug, not gedit)
