Hello. I'm reporting here, as the issue is still open, and it's somewhat related to the bug, but it might be Linux-version specific or it might belong to a different component.

For context, my configuration is as follows: I've set up the Copy, rename and link file option for Default drag & drop action and the External file links's Main file directory set.

Basically, I drag & drop, but the copied file is the original file, and the renamed copy is left in the original folder.

Here's an example of the behaviour (as I understand it should behave), for clarity, after Drag & Dropping.

Expected:

+-- $HOME
|   +-- Downloads
|   |   +-- articles 
|   |   |   +-- article.pdf
|   +-- References
|   |   +-- AuthorYear - Title.pdf

Actually occurring:

+-- $HOME
|   +-- Downloads
|   |   +-- articles 
|   |   |   +-- AuthorYear - Title.pdf
|   +-- References
|   |   +-- article.pdf

Here's my current version info (running on Ubuntu 19.04 at the moment):

JabRef 5.0.0-dev--2019-11-10----de4a1ae88
Linux 5.0.0-32-generic amd64 
Java 12.0.2

Should I report this as a new bug?

Uh oh!
