Under certain conditions print to file over-writes an existing pdf file in the chosen folder which doesn't match the name chosen by the user (and without any warning or confirmation dialog). Steps to reproduce are: 1) Create an empty directory (folder) 2) Put in directory a dummy pdf (e.g. touch sample.pdf) 3) Open libreoffice and create a writer document with a few words 4) Save the libreoffice document to the directory as a regular writer doc (e.g. 'test.odt') 5) Do 'File -> Print' and choose 'Print to File' 6) In the (gtk3) File-chooser dialog: 6a) navigate to the folder created in step 2 6b) select 'Any Type' in the 'types of file shown' selector 6c) click on the file name 'test.odt' 6d) in the 'Name' text field, then edit the name from 'test.odt' to 'test_2.pdf' 6e) then press 'Enter' (or click on 'Select') 7) Observe that in the folder there is no file 'test_2.pdf'. However the dummy file 'sample.pdf' has been over-written and contains the pdf that resulted from the 'print to file' operation -->What should of happened is that the file 'test_2.pdf' should have been created as a pdf of the writer document. ------ Some notes: - Occurs in Libreoffice 6.1.2.1 (Build ID: 1:6.1.2-0ubuntu1.1) and older versions - Only occurs using the gtk3 file browser. Native libreoffice is okay (not tested old gtk2 code) - Only occurs if you first click on 'Any Type'. If you simply type a file name without first going to 'Any Type' it doesn't manifest the bug - Only occurs if the file name you type has the '.pdf' extension. If you do a name without it, then it doesn't manifest the bug lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 18.10 Release: 18.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1807744/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
