GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 553379
Saving when last location is missing should be more graceful
Last modified: 2018-03-13 10:36:56 UTC
Originally reported at against Ubuntu at https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gimp/+bug/263369 If saving a file GIMP will try to revert to the last location used when saving. If that location no longer exists (disk off line, path name changed, etc.), it warns you that it could not be found. Steps to reproduce: 1) Insert USB key 2) Create file, then save file 3) Unmount USB key 4) Create a new file then save file -ERROR- (Screenshot attached) "Error stating file: No such file or directory" What is expected: Ignore the error, do not display error to user as it is not productive, instead show the user's home directory as the default path to save if the last path used is not available.
This is an error dialog from GTK+. Reassigning to GTK+.
