Description

I have a mapinfo-tab file in coordinate system EPSG:3044. I want to reproject it to EPSG:25832, and keep it as a mapinfo-file.

I have tried various ways to reproject the file to the new coordinate system, among other the 'Reproject Layer'-tool where I select Tab-files as the output format.
The tool runs without any problem, but the coordinatsystem in the new reprojected layer is the still EPSG 3044 - and not EPSG25832.

It works fine if I reproject to a shapefile.

The same happens in the export-function from the layer properties.

I have attached two screenshots and the tab-file

The same thing happens when using ogr2ogr, i.e.

ogr2ogr -f "MapInfo File" output1.tab Pointdata.tab -s_srs EPSG:3044 -t_srs EPSG:3857

so it is unlikely to be a QGIS bug.

Okay, then I should probably report the issue to ogr2ogr, and close this issue?

I would say yes, but let's see if a developer has something to say.
