            Bug ID: 85618
           Summary: inconsistent "save as" dialog behaviour - permissions
                    and location dependence
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.2.7.2 rc
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: filters and storage
          Assignee: [email protected]

If testfile.odt

1- has permissions 400
2- is located on /tmp

the "save as" dialog will not show the original filename as the candidate name
for saving - the user will see a blank space instead.

Since the files opened from thunderbird attachments by double clicking fullfil
conditions 1 and 2, we have a usability problem.

Changing the permissions to 440 or moving the original file to another
directory makes this behaviour go away.

Summary

chmod 400 /tmp/testfile.odt
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash --writer /tmp/testfile.odt - FAIL
chmod 440 /tmp/testfile.odt
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash --writer /tmp/testfile.odt - OK
chmod 400 /tmp/testfile.odt
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash --writer /tmp/testfile.odt - FAIL
mv /tmp/testfile.odt ~
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/oosplash --writer ~/testfile.odt - OK
