Description Gustavo Noronha (kov) 2004-12-31 16:15:16 UTC 
Quoting the Debian user who found the bug:

" To reproduce:

  1) Create two folders, "a" and "b".
  2) Put an image file in "a".
  3) Open it in eog (I double click in Nautilus)
  4) Save it to folder "b". Observe this works!
  5) Exit eog.
  6) Open the original file in eog again (I double click in Nautilus 
again).
  7) Try to save it to folder "b" with the same name it was saved with 
last time. An error dialogue box pops up with the name of the source 
file in folder "a" and the message "File exists. Do you want to overwrite it?""

Patch to fix the problem

This simple patch should fix this problem. If the patch is OK, it is worth
commiting to both gnome-2-8 and HEAD.

Confirmed with 2.10.0. Changing priority to High because of unreviewed patch.
