Bug #9733
seahorse-nautilus cannot overwrite encrypted files when saving: data loss
0%
Description
I think this is an important issue because it makes the user lose data.
steps to reproduce:
1 - Open Tails
2 - Open Libreoffice, edit, file, save
3 - On File Manager, right-click on file and choose encrypt (and keys to encrypt to)
4 - Choose filename
(above is not really needed, just if you don’t have the file)
5 - Open file again, make changes, save
6 - On File manager, choose encrypt and choose keys
7 - Save on the same file i.e. sekrets.pgp
A message says it will overwrite the contents of the file sekrets.pgp
Description of the error:
When opening the pgp file, the contents are the ones of the first file! The one created at step 2. all changes are lost.
I could not reproduce this issue in Debian. I think it is specific to Tails (or maybe Debian Live, although unlikely)
I could not find any obvious AppArmor errors.

What version of Debian? With which version of seahorse-nautilus?

Meta: in general, don’t assume that I commit to fix any bug that I help triaging (often by asking more info), so please don’t assign such tickets to me unless I explicitly volunteered. Thanks :)

OK, thanks. Can you reproduce this on a recent Tails/Jessie nightly build? (Let’s try to see if it’s a bug in seahorse-nautilus 3.8, that we ship in Tails/Wheezy, or something specific to Live systems.)

I could reproduce this issue with Tails/Jessie downloaded yesterday.

I assigned it to you because I was answering a question you asked (about
Debian version).

Interesting! Thanks.

OK, fair enough this workflow can work :)
But then, don’t set “Dev Needed” in such situations, otherwise it means exactly what I said I don’t want to happen.
