Please also check the ownership (UID/GID) of your files and backups with "ls -aln". Ubuntu normally registers a default user with UID 1000. If the UIDs/GIDs of your Fedora files are different, then this explains why you're affected by this bug.
As a workaround you could delete all backup files that end with *~". I like that in gedit 2.30 backups are disabled by default. It leads into a mess if every program tries to do backups. Tools like Keep or Backintime are far more effective. I use the command-line tool rdiff- backup (which is also used by Keep). -- "save anyway" dialog shows up when backup turn off https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/340862 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
