Peter Würtz has already diagnosed the issue (in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/34813/comments/20 and again in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/34813/comments/40), so its not a mystery.
A patch that would probably fix the issue has even been posted at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=336738#c5 . There is just a lack of consensus as to whether the solution is better than the problem. -- gedit fails to save files over smbfs/cifs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/34813 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
