This bug is still present. Changing file extension is not a good idea,
but LyX should not choke on it.

Title:
  File name parsing wrong when save as foo.lyx-tmp: offers to overwrite
  existing file

Status in lyx package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lyx

  In LyX 1.6.0, create a file called foo.lyx and save it.

  Now, make a modification and use "save as" to save to foo.lyx-altered

  LyX will suggest overwriting the original foo.lyx!
  Instead, it should write to the new file as requested, possibly with a .lyx extension added to the file name.

  Description:	Ubuntu 8.10
  Release:	8.10
