Bug#350108: glabels: Template designer does not report errors when writing the template

[Martin Hawlisch]

Package: glabels
Version: 2.1.2-3
Severity: normal


Hi!

I started using the template designer to create some templates that
are not commercial. I want to print to plain paper and cut the labels
using scissors.

I created the first template using "#" for Brand/Manufacturer and
"#" as Part number (because they dont apply but are required). The
first template was created nicely.

For the second template I again used "#" for Brand/Manufacturer and
"#" as Part number and continued using the druid. No error was
reported but the template was not available.

Problem is: The data entered in Brand/Manufacturer and Part number
are directly used to build the filename. The resulting filename was
in the second template the same as in the first template.

Bug #1: Glabels does not report that a file of that name already
exists and that it could not save the template.

Because the data entered in Brand/Manufacturer and Part number are
directly used to build the filename this leads to the next Bug:

Bug #2: When using a slash "/" inside Brand/Manufacturer or Part
number the template is not created because of an IO error. This is
only printed on the console but not reported to the user:

I/O error : No such file or directory
LibGlabels-Message: Problem saving xml file.


Cheers, Martin.
