            Bug ID: 119790
           Summary: Libreoffice overwrites file when changing
                    file-extension after selecting file
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Localization
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Description:
In the save-Menu I selected a odt-file and then changed the fileextension in
the input-field to pdf. This caused an other totally uninvolved pdf-file to be
overwritten.

Happened multiple times to me in the last days. (I lost some data and would
have lost a lot more if not for backups!) Seems reproducible on my system.

Libreoffice 6.0.6-3 (x86_64) on Arch Linux

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a folder with 2 files:
foo.odf
bar.pdf
2. Open foo.odf (in my case a series letter)
3. go to print
4. say yes to I want to do a series letter
5. specify print to file
6. navigate to the folder
7. select "foo.odt" with the mouse and then
8. change the filename in the input-field from "foo.odt" to "foo.pdf" and
9. click on save.

Actual Results:
The file is saved as bar.pdf. The old will get overwritten! The old content is
lost.

Expected Results:
The file is saved as foo.pdf. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I don't know if it's limited to series letters and the PDF-Export.
