Public bug reported: My Downloads folder is encrypted by fscrypt. I can save and read files in there. However, for Firefox - all downloads fail and it says only "download failed" and offers a button to retry which fails again. After a failed attempt, a file is created with a proper file name but no content (0 bytes).
When I changed the download dir to a different non-fscrypted folder, everything works properly and files do get properly saved. I switched to Chromium and Chromium has no problems downloading files into any dirs, regardless encrypted or not.
