No, it's not a coreutils bug. Usually, it's either a case of true concurrent modification (someone else really is modifying or replacing the file while you are attempting to copy it), or a buggy file system (one that doesn't report a stable inode); and coreutils is just pointing out to you that your copy may be incomplete as a result of the concurrent changes going on in your system. > This message, and any attachments, is for the intended recipient(s) only, may > contain information that is privileged, Disclaimers like this are unenforceable on publicly-archived lists; you may be wise to send mail from an account under your own control instead of one that slams on your employer's useless legalese. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
