About the version at the footer of man page I can read: "This page describes mv as found in the fileutils-4.0 package; other versions may differ slightly." You talk about 5.2.1 and 5.3.0 but don't know if you refer to fileutils package or mv program, can you clarify this so I go to file a bug. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
