Wed 18 May 2016 11:38:03 AM UTC, comment #1: In short: only when the user decides to not override an existing lock file, should editing the relevant file be abandonned. When, for whatever reason, the actual writing or overwriting of a lock file fails, this should not prevent opening and editing the file.

When file locking is enabled, and one of the calls to getpwuid() and gethostname() would fail, nano refuses to open the files specified on the command line and just opens a blank buffer. I think this is wrong.
