Bug Description

inkscape version: 0.46
environment: Mac OS X

steps to reproduce:

* create a new inkscape document
* add something (some shape)
* save
* change permission to not writable (chmod -w file.svg)
* add something (another shape)
* save

expected: error message that file could not be saved.

error: inkscape states that the file was successfully saved. Which is not true. The file on disk is still the old one.

Marking as duplicate of Bug #353847 in Inkscape: “Save over a read only file doesn't turn into Save As...”

This has been fixed in rev. 22241. The latest prerelease build Inkscape 0.47pre3-2 LEOPARD+ from <http://sourceforge.net/projects/inkscape/files/inkscape/0.47pre3/> already includes the fix - in case you depend on this being handled correctly.
