Gedit does not create a backup file of a saved file even if the preferences of gedit are set to do so. On a save it just over writes the original file without creating a backup copy of the original file (*.~ file).
This problem has been present since Ubuntu 11.04. It is still present now in Ubuntu 11.10.
The problem does not exist in Ubuntu 10.04.

ORIGINAL TITLE:
gedit is set to provide a backup file afer a save. However, gedit has not done so since its ubuntu lucid release. It just replaces the original copy of whatever file it being saved. The preferences have been set to provide a backup. This is not a permissions problem. I can create new text files and it obviously writes them to the partition where I want to save the created new files.
