Bug ID: 413473
Summary: Kile complains about failure and deletes file if one
tries to overwrite an existing template.
Product: kile
Version: 2.9.93
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: user interface
Assignee: michel.lud...@kdemail.net
Reporter: kishor...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 123492

Screenshot of the error message.
SUMMARY
If we try to overwrite (through File > Create template from document) a
previously created user template, Kile claims that creation failed and then
deletes the file the user used to create the template. However, the template
modification actually succeeds.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a template.
2. Create a new .tex document using this template and make some changes in it.
3. File > Create template from document.
4. Choose to overwrite the existing template.
OBSERVED RESULT
Kile throws up an error saying 'failed to create template' (see attached
screenshot). Once we dismiss the error, it then complains that the file has
been deleted by another program. However, if we check the modified template by
creating a new document, we find that the changes we made have actually been
applied to the template, contrary to what the error message claimed.
EXPECTED RESULT
Kile should not falsely claim template creation failed. It should also not
delete the document the user used to create the template.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linus distro: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.63.0
Qt Version: 5.13.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If we try to create a new template (using a previously nonexistent template
name), it succeeds and does not delete the document used, as expected.
