[Bug 39854] Re: [Upstream] [hardy] OpenOffice should warn users before saving in /tmp
I've just tried using libreoffice on debian (version at end) and it opened the document read only. Once 'save as' is used, it still defaults to the temporary directory. I'd suggest this means the bug is still open on the build I have, so I'm inclined to think this bug still exists. Can anyone still produce it on Ubuntu?

[Bug 39854] Re: [Upstream] [hardy] OpenOffice should warn users before saving in /tmp
Topher, I agree and there is already an upstream bug report to deal with the overall issue. I was just mentioning it seems like the common causes of the problem have been resolved by Firefox (and it appears Evolution) making downloaded/attachments read-only which causes OOo to go into read-only mode as well.

[Bug 39854] Re: [Upstream] [hardy] OpenOffice should warn users before saving in /tmp
Good point, Chris. I've noticed that sometimes OpenOffice seems to act as though directly downloaded documents were opened from template, so I'd need to perform a Save As... instead of Save. But even if document loss is less likely when used with an up-to-date Firefox, OpenOffice should probably be more robust to preventing such (potentially severe) data loss. -- [Upstream] [hardy] OpenOffice should warn users before saving in /tmp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39854 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 39854] Re: [Upstream] [hardy] OpenOffice should warn users before saving in /tmp
This is partially alleviated by programs like Firefox now making transient files read-only which puts OOo into read-only mode as well, when clicking on the edit button it causes the save to default to the users home directory probably halfway by accident. -- [Upstream] [hardy] OpenOffice should warn users before saving in /tmp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/39854 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
