The paperwork being complete now, I wanted to verify that the patch
indeed fixes the problem. But I can't reproduce the problem in the first
place.
Here's what I did:
- Install Fedora Rawhide (Linux
6.11.0-0.rc0.20240719git720261cfc732.7.fc41.x86_64).
- Create a testdir
$ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=../testdir1 --single-configure chown
fchownat fdutimensat futimens lchown stat-time utime utimens utimensat
- Build it, both on an ext4 file system and a btrfs file system.
=> No test failure is seen.
What am I missing? What do I need to change in my setup, in order to
reproduce the problem?
Bruno
