Diskspace / quota config save problem

[csg7020]

Licq does not check in advance before saving his configuration files if there is enough diskspace / user quota to save the complete config. This results that not the entire licq configuration will be saved and licq is unable to restart due to incomplete config files.

This is very annoying, when you are on a tight quota system. The right way should be a warning message pop-up and NOT saving the current config.

If, licq doesn't move through stable states managing configuration files there is the possibility to loose data. Not only if there is not enough disk space.

Please fix this grave bug !

The bug is in function CICQDaemon::SaveUserList?() at icqd.cpp the users list is not saved atomically at least should use CIniFile for saving this file

This bug is now open for more then 5 months, the only "easy" work around i'have come up is to make a script that simply copies the latest config and makes a backup in case licq corrupts it's config files. Users can then simply restore their latest config.

But this is a very annoying way of keeping your config files "save". Please put this on top of your priority list.

This bug is not fixed!!!

CICQDaemon::SaveUserList?() at icqd.cpp is still not saving the user list atomically, so there are unstable states in the process of saving this file.
