Bug ID: 416258
Summary: Editing tags in Gwenview for read-only files
Product: gwenview
Version: 19.12.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: gwenview-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: tagwer...@innerjoin.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Gwenview gives a dialog to edit tags for an image file under Semantic
Information
If read/write permissions granted on the file (0600), the change occurs and can
be seen with getfattr -d ...
If only read permissions granted (0400), the change is accepted by Gwenview
(and cached?) but it is not changed in the attributes in the filesystem (the
change is not seen with getfattr -d ...)
The same behaviour happens for changes to the rating and comment fields
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a read-only image file, open with gwenview and attempt to set a tag.
2. Check the file with getfattr -d ....
OBSERVED RESULT
Gwenview thinks the tag has been added but the attributes are not changed on
the filesystem
EXPECTED RESULT
Give an error message if the attempt to change details fails
DESIRED STATE
Do not give an option to change tags for read-only files.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Gwenview 19.12.1
from Neon 5.17
KDE Plasma 5.17.5
KDE Frameworks 5.66.0
Qt 5.13.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is similar to earlier behaviour in Dolphin 19.04.02, where a change was
accepted but the xattr details not changed. With Dolphin 19.08.3, the option to
edit tags is not given for read-only files.
