@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

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. -- gedit fails to save files over smbfs/cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/34813 You received this bug
