Bug description

Open a PDF file. Choose File -- Save a Copy... and save a copy. On completion of the save, xreader exits. This is not the wanted behaviour.

Steps to reproduce

Create a PDF file e.g. by exporting from LibreOffice (I used LibreOffice 7.3.7.2 Writer. Open newly created PDF file in xreader. Choose File -- Save a Copy... and save a copy. On completion of the save, xreader exits. This is not the wanted behaviour.

Expected behavior

I expect a copy of the PDF currently being viewed to be saved as requested in teh Save dialogue, and once save for the session viewing the file to continue without exiting.

Additional information

This appears to be a reoccurrence of a bug that was apparently fixed.

Fixed. Duplicate of https://github.com/linuxmint/xreader/issues/609

I thought this might be different as it wasn't an annotated PDF (#609), just an 'ordinary' one.

This is where I show my ignorance - are we waiting on upstream, or some other process before an update can be sent out via the Update Manager (in other words, the repository gets updated with a fixed version)? Point me towards the Fine Manual if the process is documented somewhere so I can read and set my expectations accordingly.
