Title:
print to file defaults to /home and fails silently if target directory
is not writable
Status in Mozilla Firefox:
Confirmed
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Load a web page in firefox and click File->Print. The Print dialog box
appears.
2. Choose Print to File from the list of printers
3. Choose home under Save in folder. (This is always the default selection
for me).
4. Type a name in the filename box, and hit Print.
What happens:
The "Printing" dialog box appears, the progress indicator goes up to 100%,
and then it disappears. However, no file is saved
(because /home/ is not writable).
What should happen:
A message should appear saying that the file cannot be written to
/home/, and I should be returned to the Print dialog.
