Package: manpages-dev Version: 2.77-1 Current rmdir(2) manpage only lists
ENOTEMPTY
pathname contains entries other than . and .. ; or, pathname has .. as
its final component.
However, according to the SuSv2 spec [1], rmdir can return either
ENOTEMPTY or EEXISTS in this case.
In fact, the current ntfs-3g version does use EEXISTS, allegedly
because "more software handle the relevant error scenario better that
way". (see [2] for the place where this originally came up)
Thank you,
Martin
