There's nothing to revert, the behaviour is the same in the old okular, just
the shortcuts are different.

Oh. Oh. Oh.

Ctrl + S works. It's just that Ctrl + Shift + S used to work in the same
fashion for so long that it just kinda became my workflow.

That said, I guess not being able to 'Save a copy' in the same place makes
sense semantically. However, I'd still argue that the old behavior i.e. asking
for overwrite confirmation, and then proceeding to write in place instead of
erroring out - makes more sense from a usability point of view. 

This is mostly because of how non descriptive the error is, and because every
other application does it like this. I would ask you to consider reverting
this.

Happy new year.

You realize Ctrl+Shift+S is "Save Copy as" and not "Save as", right?

You sure you don't want Ctrl+S ?

I'm on Plasma 5.8.5-1 on Arch.

That command gives me:

which desktop environment do you use?

Also when you start okular, can you run this in a terminal and attach the
output?

grep platformtheme /proc/`pidof okular`/maps

/media/Data (which is mounted with ntfs-3g) was the 3rd location I tried,
actually. And that too was for completion's sake. I've been able to replicate
this with my home folder (ext4), and /root with okular running with kdesu.

I've played around with permissions too. It doesn't work with 644 or 777.

I'll reiterate: I AM able to save the file in a new location with the Ctrl +
Shift + S dialog. Just not in the same location as the existing file.

I would guess that you are simply not allowed to write to /media/Data, which is
where your browser apparently caches the pdf files you find on the internet. 
To confirm, either try

touch /media/Data/foo

which I suspect will fail, or try save a pdf file that you have locally in your
home directory (which I think will work).

I'm afraid this is all the specific information I have. I'll walk through the
steps to reproduce this if it helps. If it is a problem on my machine it seems
to persist across all PDFs.

1. Open any PDF. I downloaded one at random after googling pdf sample.
2. Press Ctrl + Shift + S to save it in its original location.
3. Press 'Overwrite' at the overwrite file dialog box.
4. Get an error message like the attachment.

The terminal doesn't show any extra output about this error. I've also been
able to replicate this across filesystems. Obey DRM is unchecked.

Works fine here, could you be a bit more precise of what is the problem you get
other than saying "it's no longer possible", saves for some time of me having
to ask you to be precise.

Also "Export as Document Archive" is as old as it gets, and has nothing to do
with this.
