Bug ID: 119790
Summary: Libreoffice overwrites file when changing
file-extension after selecting file
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.0.6.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Localization
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: mich...@schoenitzer.de
Description:
In the save-Menu I selected a odt-file and then changed the fileextension in
the input-field to pdf. This caused an other totally uninvolved pdf-file to be
overwritten.
Happened multiple times to me in the last days. (I lost some data and would
have lost a lot more if not for backups!) Seems reproducible on my system.
Libreoffice 6.0.6-3 (x86_64) on Arch Linux
Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a folder with 2 files:
foo.odf
bar.pdf
2. Open foo.odf (in my case a series letter)
3. go to print
4. say yes to I want to do a series letter
5. specify print to file
6. navigate to the folder
7. select "foo.odt" with the mouse and then
8. change the filename in the input-field from "foo.odt" to "foo.pdf" and
9. click on save.
Actual Results:
The file is saved as bar.pdf. The old will get overwritten! The old content is
lost.
Expected Results:
The file is saved as foo.pdf.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
I don't know if it's limited to series letters and the PDF-Export.
