Title:
firefox does not save an attachments starting with dot
Status in Mozilla Firefox:
Fix Released
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I download & save a file and I change the name to start with a dot,
it 0) prompts me to replace the existing dot file, if it exists, 1) removes
the
existing dot file, and 2) silently removes the dot and saves it with the
name.
Example, someone mailed me a .bash_completion to replace an existing one,
and it removed the existing but saved /home/me/bash_completion.
I consider it a bug to not save dot-files if I ask for it, or to not give a
proper
error message if it refuses. If upstream disagrees, it is at least a bug to
remove the existing dot-file if it refuses to save over it.
