@bryce: Does the patch seem to do what you expect? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905355 Title: [Upstream] Never let users save in /tmp by default Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: When you download something and choose to open it in LibreOffice, it will be saved in /tmp. If you choose Save As, the default saving location will be in /tmp. I just lost a partly written exam that way. I thought it was on my Desktop, but oh no, it was in /tmp and after rebooting it's now gone. The suggestion is to NEVER let /tmp be the default folder in the Save dialog, and to ALWAYS warn the user if saving something there.
