Description Victor Aurélio 2016-04-20 17:40:02 UTC 
I think it should warn when trying to save a file with read-only permission.

I was trying to save a file with permission r-r-r and it does nothing neither warns the user.

This seems to work as expected for Ogg files, but does not seem to work when using id3lib (ID3v2.3 tags). Can you confirm the types of files (or tags) that you are seeing this problem with? Thanks!
Comment 2 David King 2016-04-22 08:16:54 UTC 
I investigated id3lib, and it seems that writing files in the way that EasyTAG does, errors are never reported:

http://id3lib.sourceforge.net/api/c__wrapper_8cpp-source.html#l00208

Any exceptions are simply ignored. It might be possible to solve this with a custom wrapper.
Comment 3 Victor Aurélio 2016-04-23 09:25:43 UTC 
Yes, it was mp3 files.
Comment 4 André Klapper 2021-05-26 09:51:54 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new enhancement request ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/easytag/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
