Drawing img editing toll strange problem


 Got a problem with drawing image editing app. When I try to edit a jpg picture and try to save it it gives an error failed to save bla bla. also there's another warning message about the image that changed on disk.

When I try to close the app and hit discard, the whole image is deleted and it's nowhere to be found.

I'm running the newest version 1.0.2 , anyone got this problem with drawing app? At 1st I thought it's my file system fault so fsck and defrag my f2fs root and home partitions, but the problems doesn't look like being there.

When the format is png, things seem to work as they should. Tnx in advance and happy autumn for all!🍂🍂

 Got news. If I rename de file it seem to work ok. Problems shows up when the edited picture name is the same as old one so when you try to replace it it will give the error. No other program on my system makes any trouble except drawing app. I'll mark it as solved since this renaming thing fixed the issue but I think we have to keep an eye on this one.

It must be some error in the drawing app code, maybe a typo or something like that.

 Found the possible culprit. I think it's about 'python-gobject' pkg which I saw it's not maintained by artix devs but it's coming straight from the mainline arch repos.

python-gobject was updated on 28 sept 2025... can't dig deeper for now as 'archlinux.org' took a large dump right about now. It also may be from python-gobject dependencies fault.

Edit: archlinux.org up again so found two dependencies with potential problems, either gobject-introspection-runtime or glib2, both got updates on 22 September. My bet goes to the 1st one gobject-introspection-runtime.
