Followup-For: Bug #334168
Hi,
I wrote a very small patch for this bug. As moving a file across
different mount points is quite difficult[1], I choosed to create the temp
file in the same directory as the preferences file.
I hope this is OK!
Note:
1. The only way I found is to copy the source file to destination and
delete the source file
Cheers,
tibob
