Package: gwenview
Version: 4:4.4.5-2
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze

After using "save as" (and of course not clicking "go back to the original
picture") and then continuing to edit the new picture (e.g. change size) and
saving the changes, the original picture is edited and not the copy that was
created.


Reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
Open a picture with Gwenview, e.g. picture.jpeg.
Select File - Save as ... and save it e.g. as picture-small.jpeg because you
intend to make a smaller copy for e-mailing/uploading.
An informational message appears: "You are now viewing the new picture" with an
option to return to the original - do not choose this option. The informational
message disappears automatically.
Note that the titlebar of Gwenview mentions the file name and it is
"picture-small.jpeg", not the original photo "picture.jpeg".
Click the Operations tab, click Change size, enter a new size, e.g. 500
(meaning change to target width of 500 pixels), confirm.
Save by clicking the save button that appears on top of the photo.


Actual Results:
The original photo picture.jpeg now has a width of 500 pixels. The "saved as"
copy picture-small.jpeg still has the old size.


Expected Results:
The original photo picture.jpeg should be unchanged. The "saved as" copy
picture-small.jpeg should have the new width of 500 pixels.



How does this bug cause data loss:
At first it doesn't, if one notices what has happened and that the
"picture-edited.jpeg" or "picture-small.jpeg" one has just created still is the
original.
But I for example have now lost several original (full size, uncropped) photos
due to this bug because I did not realize what was happening at first:
- I created the smaller version.
- When I want to e-mail or upload it, it is still too large (of course, because
picture-small.jpeg is the original-size photo). I think: Either I did not make
it small enough, or I made a mistake when using Gwenview (forgot to save, typed
in the wrong number of pixels or something like this).
- I open the picture-small.jpeg "again" (as I think) and make it "even
smaller". When I save it, there is now no more full size / uncropped version of
the photo existing.
