[Bug 263369] Re: Save file reverts to last location used. If not available, error is displayed.

[komputes]

** Also affects: thunderbird (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gimp
  
- If saving a file, some programs (such as GIMP) will try to revert to the
- last location used when saving. If that location no longer exists (disk
- off line, path name changed, etc.), it warns you that it could not be
- found.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Insert USB key
  2) Create file, then save file
  3) Unmount USB key
  4) Create a new file then save file
  -ERROR- (Screenshot attached)
  "Error stating file: No such file or directory"
  
  What is expected: Ignore the error, do not display error to user as it
  is not productive, instead show the user's home directory as the default
  path to save if the last path used is not available.
  
  I will report if this happens under any other applications as well. If
  anyone has experienced this using another application please report it
  below.
  
  Version Information:
  Ubuntu Hardy (2.6.24-19-generic)
  gimp 2.4.5-1ubuntu2
+ thunderbird 2.0.0.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1
