[Bug 906103] Re: crashes without saving when 'save-as' dialogue used

 

** Attachment added: "To reproduce:  Open gedit.  type some text.  activate the 'save-as' dialogue, using keyboard shortcut.  Type the filename you wish to use.  Navigate to the directory where the file is to be saved.  Select 'save'.  Gedit will exit, without saving your file.  I've attached a type script, showing the errors thrown by gedit when attempting to save, both a pre-existing file, and a new file.  In the case of a non-existing file, it looks like gedit tries to open said file, before saving.  If the file I wish to save is already there,  (I used the 'touch' command as shown), the contents do not get replaced, and the program exits with a 'seg-fault'."
