https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=204093 Summary: perl -i resets file ACLs and EAs Product: Fedora Core Version: fc5 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: normal Component: perl AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] QAContact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: [email protected] Description of problem: When perl's -i option is used to do an in-place edit of a file, it resets the ACLs and extended attributes on that file. Since perl -i can be a very helpful tool for scripting and system administration, it would be nice if it preserved ACLs and EAs. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-5.8.8-5 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. touch testfile 2. setfacl -m u:testuser:r testfile 3. setfattr -n user.test testfile 4. perl -pi -e 's/Something/SomethingElse/' testfile 5. getfacl testfile; getfattr testfile Actual results: Nothing. Expected results: ACLs and EAs set in steps 2 and 3 above.
