Package: clamtk
Version: 4.41-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The 'clamtk' "Scanning Results" window, full of the grayed out files
quarantined, right-click option "Save As:".
Select a quarantined file, pick a save location in '/tmp', and:
"Could not save that file."
The '/tmp' directory had enough free space.
'clamtk' saves the same file to non-'/tmp' directories without a problem.
Assuming this '/tmp' exclusion is intentional or mostly harmless, the
main flaw lies in the error message: "Could not save that file.", which
misleads users to infer the file itself is to blame.
Suggested tweak: change the source code to check for '/tmp', then
show a more specific error message, e.g.:
Sorry, can't save files to '/tmp'.
Better tweak:. Gray out the 'tmp' directory in the file selection
window, that is, make '/tmp' unselectable.
HTH...
