RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

patch from the upstream bug
Description of problem:
I don't want the 'highlight misspelled words' setting enabled, so I disable it but the next time that I open the file it is sometimes enabled again.
Steps to reproduce:
- Have two files (*.m with Matlab highlighting in my case), open them in gedit, disable the 'highlight misspelled words' setting if set.
- Close gedit
- Reopen the two files from the command line, e.g. 'gedit *.m'.
Result:
For the first file the setting is still disabled, but for the second file the setting is enabled.
The same goes in the other direction as well ... when I actually want for some document to have spelling enabled, it is not saved to the gvfs metadata either. Actually, gvfs-file doesn't show any gedit metadata at all.
When opening the files one by one from the gedit UI, the bug doesn't occur, the setting is correctly disabled.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gedit-3.14.3-9.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
