The errror backup message window

Hi,

When option "always create a backup file" is chosen (documentation separate
problem function not well explained), when you save the current file the
previous version (content of the temp file) is saved as normal file but with an
index number with increment at the end of the file name.

This lead to a writing backup file error.
The main file is then not updated the lonely solution is to save as.
Can too change the option this functions dynamically.

On the way to search the origin :
When you try to save the file .~lock.<name>>.odt# is updated
A file with previous content with name "<name>n.odt"  previous date with
previous content (n is first integer for a not existing filename : should
increment)

I have no gone farther. In this case there is probably an open-close-rename
file between lock and backup crossed.

It is easy to reproduce and check (moving current files, changing the option)

Good luck
Best regards
