Bug ID: 164615
Summary: FILESAVE : Calc magically converted workbook to a csv
on the fly, without prompting
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.8.2.1 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Calc
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Upgrade LO yesterday.
Opened Calc and worked on a large spreadsheet with substantial LO Basic code
that has been running for months. Without even noticing it, at some point I
realised I the title bar had changed the extension from *.ods to "sheet.csv".
However behaviour before I closed it was still that of a regular workbook, ie
IDE was functional & loaded, my macros could be run, spreadsheet functions were
operational, etc. Truly bizarre!
There was no indication of whether it was triggered by something I was doing in
BASIC or if that was coincidental. Wasn't doing anything outrageous.
On closing, I was left with just the first sheet in the sheet.csv file, as
would be expected. The previous save was still on disc and opened without
apparent issue (so far!).
There was no error message or indication, no crash - this just happened without
even noticing it until it was too late. I had not seen this error with previous
versions of Calc using this same workbook or any other. I had been saving the
file a few times every hour.
The recent LO upgrade was routine, done via Nala (apt). I run system update
checks a few times a week, so the previous LO version was the latest in general
release.
Steps to Reproduce:
Not deliberately reproducible.Issue following upgrade to 24.8.2.1 suspected.
Actual Results:
[workbook].ods changed filename to sheet.csv in background
On save, csv file containing sheet #1 on disk. Previous save of [workbook].ods
also found on disk and appears to be in good shape.
Expected Results:
No unprompted file conversion on the fly.
Reproducible: Didn't try
User Profile Reset: No
