           Summary: Adding a word to a custom dictionary overwrites NTFS
                    symbolic link to dictionary
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.0.4 release
         Component: Linguistic
           Product: LibreOffice

Since it's not possible to add a user-specified directory for user dictionaries
(bug 36558), I use NTFS symbolic links to reference wordbooks elsewhere in my
directory tree (somewhere that gets backed up and synced). These can be created
using "mklink LINK TARGET" in an admin command prompt.

Up to LO 4.0.4, this worked perfectly fine.

However, in LO 4.1.0, something changed in the implementation.

Now, if I add a new word to my custom dictionary, the file gets written to the
{user}/AppData/Roaming/LibreOffice/4/user/wordbook directory and it overwrites
the symbolic link, rather than writing it to the linked file.
