Description Fabian Maurer 2016-12-16 12:57:15 UTC

Using Arch Linux. After updating from "kdebase-kdialog 16.08.3-1" to "kdialog 16.12.0-1" the issue appears.

Action: Right-click on any image and select "Save as"
Expected Result: Open save dialog in last used folder
Result: Dialog is opened in default folder

Downgrading to kdebase-kdialog does help, downgrading chrome does not.

Might be related to Bug 369216.

Help pinning down the issue would be appreciated.

Confirming, also on Arch Linux after updating to kdialog 16.12.0-1.

Not sure that "default folder" is accurate though. In my case ~/Downloads is specified as the default save folder in Chrome, but the Save dialog always opens in ~/Documents.
