@robie:
Sorry for complicating things. I've run a new test on an installation of
9.10 following your directions. After creating the tar, I realized that
I should have called my user something other than tmp. Let me know if
this causes problems and I can re-run the tests, since the box is
already
I've attached two strace logs in case anybody is interested.
strace_first.log contains a strace of launching GEdit, opening a file
over sshfs that had not been opened previously, making a change,
successfully saving it, making another change, and being unable to save.
strace_second.log contains
I think forking gedit is a little overboard. I am sure that a simple
patch is all that is needed, and could be provided for those of us who

Sorry to hear about the very serious deletion bug. As far as I can see,
it is still open and set to high importance. I also understand your
disaffection with gedit after such a problem, and sympathize with you.
However, I wouldn't issue such a sweeping condemnation of gedit based so
little
I just want to bump what Crashmaxx says. All that is necessary to
reproduce this error is to mount a remote share to a folder with sshfs,
and try to save with a modified file with Gedit. I just checked Emacs,
KDevelop, and even OpenOffice Writer. All can open, read, and write a
file over sshfs.
I also get the same problem in Fiesty w/ gedit. As a couple of the
duplicate bugs indicate, the same problem exists with sshfs, which i
believe is based on fuse, for what its worth.

Above I meant to say that the problem exists in Gutsy... it is broken in
