Hey, I found the reason for the unexpected behavior I was seeing. I have compared the output of strace when saving a file with vi and with kate:
vi: write(1, "\"aFile\"", 7) = 7 kate: rename("/var/tmp/test/aFilehc6546.new", "/var/tmp/test/aFile") = 0 It is possible to catch the rename event via watching the ENTRY_CREATE. Something I wasn't aware of before. So it was really not a problem of java or anything else but a problem of my limited understanding. So this bug can be closed as "invalid". I am sorry for producing some noise here. Best regards Stefan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
