[Bug 1364271] [NEW] Lyx 2.1.1 can not open file after crash

 

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.10.
I was working  on paper.lyx (about 120 Ko).

LyX crashed without any error message. After that both paper.lyx and
paper.lyx.emergency were corrupted (only 12 Ko), and LyX could not open
them (trying for "infinite" time, I had to use Force Quit).

The only workaround I found it that there were also a hidden file
paper.lyx~ whose size was correct. I renamed it paper2.lyx, and LyX has
been able to open it. Only my very last update before the crash was
missing.
