Description Bill Dietrich 2022-09-03 18:26:04 UTC

SUMMARY
***
On Solus 4.3 Budgie, doing Enclosure / Save Link As downloads the file, then gives a "could not rename / check permissions" error.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to a feed item that has a file (maybe .mp3) enclosure on it.
2. Right-click on the enclosure's link and select "Save Link As".
3. See dialog as the file is downloaded.
4. See dialog saying "Could not rename partial file /home/user1/Videos/FILENAME.mp3.
Please check permissions."
5. I have 755 permission to that directory.
6. Tried "chmod a+w" on that dir, no change.
7. Tried saving to Downloads dir instead, no change.
8. "wget" of that link works.

OBSERVED RESULT
File did not get saved to disk.

EXPECTED RESULT
File should be saved to disk.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Please could you add a feed url where there is this error ?
Thanks

Comment 2 Bill Dietrich 2022-09-04 11:04:22 UTC

One such feed is https://feeds.simplecast.com/p7S4nr_h

Comment 3 Laurent Montel 2022-09-04 12:22:21 UTC

I can't reproduce problem here.
It seems to be a local problem for me.

Comment 4 Bill Dietrich 2022-09-04 13:43:32 UTC

Is there a maintainer for Solus that you can inform, please ?  I don't know how these things work.

Is there some way this could be a "portals" thing ?  Is the environment relevant ?  On my system, output of "env | grep XDG" is:

> XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/usr/share/xdg:/etc/xdg:/usr/share
> XDG_SESSION_PATH=/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Session0
> XDG_MENU_PREFIX=gnome-
> XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP=budgie-desktop
> XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11
> XDG_GREETER_DATA_DIR=/var/lib/lightdm-data/user1
> XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Budgie:GNOME
> XDG_SEAT_PATH=/org/freedesktop/DisplayManager/Seat0

> XDG_DATA_DIRS=/home/user1/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share:/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share:/usr/share:/var/lib/snapd/desktop/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop

I'm just guessing; is there some other info I could give ?

Additional info: this appears in system journal when the save fails:

Comment 6 Laurent Montel 2022-09-04 17:38:46 UTC

it uses a GTK file dialog.
=> it seems that it's a problem from it.

Comment 7 Joey Riches 2022-09-05 13:02:59 UTC

Downstream packaging problem: see https://dev.getsol.us/T10375. Can be closed.

Comment 8 Joey Riches 2022-09-05 13:05:47 UTC

Feel free to reopen if you want it to work with the GTK file picker. Not my area of knowledge.
