[okular] [Bug 372917] Saving annotations to pdf stopped working

--- Comment #10 from Henrik Fehlauer  ---
For Okular 1.3 (KDE Applications 17.12), saving annotations now always saves to
the PDF, using the XML file (which results in the behaviour you see regarding
dependence on filename, but not path) is not supported anymore.

Therefore I doubt this is still an issue. Nevertheless, please retest with the
newest version and report back if it still fails. Then it would also be great
if you provided exactly the steps you followed and attached the PDF.

I can also confirm on Okular 1.0.3, Backend 0.6.5, KDE 5.31.0, Qt 5.7.1, XCB,
Ubuntu 17.04.

Just like what happens with Michael D., saving to another location loses the
annotations.

Just like what happens with Jonathan Riddell, despite the warning "File could
not be saved in...", the file is saved correctly.

A new observation is that if I save to another filename, move this new file to
another folder and then rename the new file to the original filename, the
annotations are shown. It seems that the annotations are not lost, but depend
on the name of the original file, not depending on its path.

No further answers, reporter states it's working and I also cannot reproduce on
Neon with the attached PDF. I don't think running Okular as root is supported.
Closing for now, please reopen if needed.

master and Applications 16/12 are *veeery* similar code, i can't see how
one would work and not the other.

Are you really trying to save in /root/foo.pdf ? Are you running okular as
root?

I can confirm this using KDE neon Dev Stable edition
package build: 4:16.08.90+p16.04+git20161123.1830-0 (so built on 23 November
from Applications/16.12 branch)
okular --version: 0.99.80

open a PDF in okular
press F6
Click Freehand Line and add a line to the document
File -> Save As -> Save (same file name -> Yes (to replace it)
"File could not be saved in 'file:///root/foo.pdf'. Try to save it to another
location."
on closing and re-opening the file has saved correctly

This does not happen with Neon Dev Unstable (master branch, okular 1.0.70) not
with Neon User (kdelibs4 build)
Nothing looks relevant on command line output
This seems to be unrelated to the earlier issue of Neon packages where some
files were in the wrong package, same issue if the okular-extra-backends
package is installed or not.

Strangely enough, it's working now. I've tested a number of pdfs and everything
works just fine.

No need to wipe the settings, have nothing to do with this.

Can you please describe exactly what you do, i.e. which kind of annot you add,
which menus you press, i.e. every single step.

I've tried it on various pdfs built in various ways (e.g. pdflatex) and none
work. I wonder if I should wipe my okular settings. Do you know where they're
kept?

Works fine here, can you attach a file that doesn't work for you?
