Kleopatra does not report error when calculating checksums an checksum file can not be written.

reproduction

  1. select some files inside a write proected folder on HDD
  2. click caclulate cecksums ("Prüfsummen erstellen" in german) from the Gpg4Win context menue
  3. wait some time
  4. Kleopaatra shows a dialog saying where the checksum file is located
  5. Kleopatra also shows that there was no error ("kein Fehler aufgetreten" in german)

But the file mentioned in the dialog does not exist due to write protection of the folder.

Sometimes I get an empty sha256sum.txt file when calculating sha256 sums of 6 files bigger then 800MB, but at the moment this is hard to reproduce. I hope solving this bug will show an error message, when trying again.
