Description Rosanna Yuen 2005-05-28 17:10:28 UTC 
1) Start Sabayon
2) Create a user profile
3) Edit this profile so there can be changes apparent
4) Select "Add" again and enter the same name as in step 2
5) The changes made in step 3 are gone

I should not be able to give a new profile a name that is already taken.  An
error message would be nice as well.

Thanks, fixed on HEAD by making it create profile "foo (1)" if you try and
create "foo" when it already exists

        When creating a new profile, make sure the profile name
        is unique. Fixes bug #305759

        * admin-tool/profilesdialog.py:
        (ProfilesModel.reload): sort the profiles list
        (ProfilesDialog.__make_unique_profile_name): if the
        profile name already exists, make it unique by adding
        an integer in parenthesis to the name.
