Bug Description

I'm using Homebank 5.1.6 on Xubuntu 17.10.

If I close Homebank with the "x" button on Homebank's title bar the backup file isn't updated after accepting the prompt to save.

How to reproduce:

1) Open Homebank and make a change to your data
2) Close Homebank by clicking on the "x" button in the title bar
3) Accept prompt to save

My directory listing shows:

-rw-r--r-- 1 paul paul 58138 Sep 29 14:53 pw.xhb
-rw-r--r-- 1 paul paul 58124 Sep 29 00:46 pw.xhb~

I expected to see something like:

-rw-r--r-- 1 paul paul 58138 Sep 29 14:56 pw.xhb
-rw-r--r-- 1 paul paul 58138 Sep 29 14:56 pw.xhb~

which is what happens when I save my data using the "Save" button or from the file menu.

Repeatedly closing Homebank with the "x" button means the backup file is never updated.

Using HomeBank on Windows, and I just requested for the same.

It's really annoying to lose 1 or 2h work, and it should not be too difficult to implement (coder speaking), right ?
