2015-08-30 08:10:18 Rolf Leggewie description Not sure what package this bug should be filed against, but I observed the following behaviour on my trusty box. Open a page in firefox for example or some other document you'd like to print to a PDF. Ctrl+P to print. Select "Print to file". Navigate to the place you would to save to, for simplicity of demonstartion, let's say this was "/tmp/". Make sure there is a directory called /tmp/test.pdf (I know this is silly, but it actually happens quite often accidentally by how selecting a folder and file name are presented in these dialogs). Save the file now as test.pdf. You should receive a warning now that /tmp/test.pdf already exists (the directory) and whether you want to overwrite it. Choose Yes. You'd expect the file to be created now, but actually that is not the case. Not sure what package this bug should be filed against, but I observed the following behaviour on my trusty box.
