GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 130147
Permissions changed on file save
Last modified: 2009-08-15 18:40:50 UTC
Description of Problem: saving a file as a normal user will always reset its permissions to -rw------- Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Create file as non-root user 2. save file 3. permissions are reset Actual Results: permissions are reset Expected Results: permissions should be the same How often does this happen? every time Additional Information: Other text editors do not do this, and there seems to be no configuration to remedy this. However, you can manually change the permissions on a file after saving from the command line
Which version of gedit are you using?
2.4.0
I have tried this under both gedit 2.4.0 and 2.5.0, and I can't reproduce it. gedit seems to honor the file permissions in all cases. Can you provide some more specific information on how to duplicate the bug?
This works fine for me in 2.6.0. David, can you provide more details?
no signs of life... closing.
