--- Comment #5 from Raould at comcast.net ---
I have files in several directories that I use daily.  Rather than using the
file manager to navigate to those directories each time I want to work on them,
I create a link on my desktop for each file.

In the past, when I clicked on a link on the desktop, LibreOffice would open
the file (in whatever directory it really resides); I would edit the file and
save it; LibreOffice would save the file back to the directory.

As of 6.1, LibreOffice is NOT saving the file back to the directory in which it
really resides, but is overwriting the LINK on my desktop.  Thus, what was a
link is now file, and the "real" file in that other directory is never updated.
