Title:
"Print to file" silently fails
Status in Mozilla Firefox:
Confirmed
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug 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, let's say this was "/tmp/" for
simplicity of demonstartion. 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.
