Package: coreutils
Version: 5.93-5
Severity: normal

Coping a file to a local filesystem using the -p option preserves the
timestamp as expected, but doing the same to an nfs filesystem replaces
it with the current time, as if -p had not been given:

$ cp -p /etc/debian_version /tmp
$ cp -p /etc/debian_version /net/beacon/tmp
$ ls -l {/etc,/tmp,/net/beacon/tmp}/debian_version 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root     root     17 2005-06-06 19:50 /etc/debian_version
-rw-r--r-- 1 jonathan jonathan 17 2005-11-21 23:40 
/net/beacon/tmp/debian_version
-rw-r--r-- 1 jonathan jonathan 17 2005-06-06 19:50 /tmp/debian_version
