Package: astyle
Version: 2.01-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Edit small c code file called alpha.c
main ()
{
printf ("hello\n");
}
Save file.
ls --full-time alpha.c
astyle --preserve-date alpha.c
ls --full-time alpha.c
file date/time is modified by ten seconds.
Examining the code for astyle there is a spot where they added ten seconds
to suit make and some other program so they will see the changed files even if
specified to not change the date/time. Seems like this should be a different
option, but really, they should be using touch if they want a modified
date/time on the file and leave this option to work correctly.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
The date and time to not be modified as described in the manpage.
