Package: scite Version: 3.0.2-2 Severity: critical Tags: patch Justification: causes serious data loss
Hi, It seems that there is a bug in SciTE 3.0.2 that appears when you're trying to save a file. The * doesn't disappear, and subsequent saving commands report "already saved". Unfortunately, that's not the case, and the file after this is completely empty and has a zero byte size. Many features of SciTE are not working anymore when this happens (including closing), and if you try to save another file, the result will be the same (file content loss). It can happen several times a day, and have quite bad consequences for users... It seems that it may be because of threading, and linked to background saving of files. The package developpers seem to have a workaround for this: putting___________________ if PLAT_GTK background.save.size=10000000 ___________________ in the global properties file, disabling background saving for files under 10MB This should have been also included in 3.0.4, 3.1 and 3.2 versions, I guess. Details at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3466525&group_id=2439&atid=102439 Is it possible to at least update the global properties file to avoid that too many people lose their work because of this bug?
