           Summary: KSaveFile::backupFile doesn't seem to respect group in
                    file mode
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: robby at periapsis.org


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

This might be a "feature" or intended function of the KSaveFile::backupFile()
method, but its different than my expectation.

The backup file, simply backup file in my case with a ~ suffix, doesn't have
the same group ownership as the original file.

After saving a file (with Tellico) in group 'video' (just for testing), the
backup file has the default group of 'users'. The 'robby' user is a member of
both groups.

robby at homebase:~/tmp> ls -l tctmp1.tc*
-rw------- 1 robby video 152070 2009-12-18 16:10 tctmp1.tc
-rw------- 1 robby users 152063 2009-12-18 16:10 tctmp1.tc~

Is that intended? I would expect the backup file to have identical ownership as
the original one, at least as much as possible.
