I've attached two strace logs in case anybody is interested. strace_first.log contains a strace of launching GEdit, opening a file over sshfs that had not been opened previously, making a change, successfully saving it, making another change, and being unable to save.
strace_second.log contains a strace of launching GEdit, opening this file that had been opened over sshfs before, and getting an error on trying to save I'm on 9.04. In both tests, the "Create a backup copy of files before saving" as in the Editor preferences was checked. Unchecking this box solves this problem for me. The file I'm opening is /home/straceuser/stracedir/stracemnt/test.txt , where stracemnt is a sshfs fuse mount. I'm sure there are several people here, myself included, who would be willing to help troubleshoot this problem, if a dev was interested in un-triaging it. ** Attachment added: "strace.tar.gz" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35512943/strace.tar.gz -- gedit fails to save files over smbfs/cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/34813 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
