In all cases the original file is corrupted and the changes can be lost depending on the app (gimp seems to recover if you are very patient). We should either fix this or disable ftp in gvfs to protect our users. Raising to Critical as there is possible data lose. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
