No save dialog opens with latest Zenity (3.91.0). (No longer implements "--confirm-overwrite") #24

OpenSuse Tumbleweed now has this version of Zenity as default. When launching file save dialog from VCVRack, nothing happens - except a message on the console. This option is not available. Please see --help for all possible usages.

As a workaround I have tried to comment out addition of this command parameter, and this seems to work - though not a permanent solution. https://github.com/AndrewBelt/osdialog/blob/1c9aaab9aae8df296439d46bd83acbf326522ea7/osdialog_zenity.c#L183

Not sure if this is an upstream issue.

--confirm-overwrite was probably accidentally removed in a merge in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/zenity/-/commit/f17a8bfc875fada1a79e42f6f07119e91a6955f4. I'll report to the Zenity repo, but unfortunately I'll have to remove --confirm-overwrite in osdialog for several years, since Zenity's bug is out in the wild.

Removed flag in e2921e9

Filed bug report at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/zenity/-/issues/55 Added workaround in 9d46d8bb91e53c2f201333e058d8cbd7916949a6 that checks if --confirm-overwrite is available.
