CentOS - Jun 2006 - Evolution bug in CentOS 4.3

Hi Everyone,

A client has an email in Evolution with an attachment:

CNH_Specialized_Bid_Letter_Web_Ex_#1.doc

When the file is opened directly from Evolution, OOo Writer complains:

/home/rob/.evolution/cache/tmp/evolution-tmp-inF1Pe/CNH_Specialized_Bid_Letter_Web_Ex_
does not exist.

But, the user's Evolution temp cache has a copy of the file:

-rw-rw---- 1 rob rob 30208 Jun 23 00:43
CNH_Specialized_Bid_Letter_Web_Ex_#1.doc

This problem appears to be similar to this bug:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341482

It's not exactly the same: the effect is, though.

I want to see if the posted patch will work.  But, I'm also wondering if
this is on the upstream distro's radar for U4.  I search their bugzilla
- didn't find anything.

Anyone else run into this?

Regards,

Ranbir

May not be in line but...

The change I have seen is that the attachments now open as read only
and if you try to do anything without first saving ...no deal!

I liked the earlier situation where I could drectly edit an incoming
document and send it back as email attachment without having to save
the attachment first and cluttering up my disk space.
