Description of problem: When printing to File (in OpenOffice Writer) it's possible to type in the name of a folder to save to. If I type "/tmp" then it still saves to whatever folder was previously selected. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gtk2-2.10.8-1.fc6 openoffice.org-writer-2.0.4-5.5.10 How reproducible: Almost always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start oowriter 2. Press File -> Print 3. Select Print to File 4. Type in a file name (test.ps); select Postscript 5. Next to "Save in folder", select "Other..." 6. If the Location field doesn't already show, press the "Type in a file name" button on the top left 7. Type "/tmp" in the Location field. Note that it auto-completes with a trailing slash. Doesn't seem to matter whether or not I delete the trailing slash. 8. Press Open. Note that "Save in folder" now says "tmp". 9. Press Print Actual results: File is saved in my home directory Expected results: File should be saved in /tmp
Fixed in upstream svn.
