How about if we just remove the warning instead? It annoys me too. I often use hard links to symlinks. (I know they're not portable, so I don't need a warning. :-) Solaris 'ln' doesn't warn in this case, and I think it's reasonable not to warn by default. There are lots of nonportable things in the GNU core utilities, so why warn about this usage in particular? _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
