            Bug ID: 116833
           Summary: Metadata not deleted
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.3.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ga3893hnd at web.de

When using the "reset properties" button (File -> Properties) to remove
metadata from a document, the data disappears only until the document is
reopened and the information is not really removed.

This includes e.g. the creation date the modify date and the username of the
creator.

Please consider that leaking such data can be a critical privacy issue for
certain people and in certain countries. This is especially true if libreoffice
appear to have deleted such information when it did not.

This bug can be reproduced with any libreoffice document.

To reproduce, create a document save it, take a look at e.g. the creation date
and author, reset properties, save the document, close and reopen libreoffice
and look at the properties again.
