Re: [Qgis-user] Possible bug?

Yes it does look like the support for extensions in some of the Linux 
libraries is a bit illiterate.  It would seem like since extensions are 
not actually required in Linux that the library creators have not fully 
understood how to handle them. Certainly notice issues with Gimp.

Hi Roxo,

You are right, I can confirm this with a very recent build of QGIS:

It's actually an operating system (well, gtk library) issue. The same 
thing happens in other apps too on that same platform.

Please file an issue (https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues), this
seems easily fixable.

   It seems that even if QGis will give the default "extension" to the
filename, it does not verify the prior existence of the file after it
attach the "extension".

   This was in a QGis 3.26.0 on Linux Xubuntu 20.04.   I know that both
the QGis and system are kind of old, but if this "feature" is present
in current versions it can be cumbersome.
