New submission from Марк Коренберг <socketp...@gmail.com>:
see http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/programming-9/utime-on-a-symbolic-link-743085/: ---------- Hello, The API utime() is not available for symbolic links. However, with kernel 2.6.22 lutimes() API allowed setting times on atime and mtime on symbolic links. ---------- Neither python 2.7 nor 3.4 support lutime() syscall. So imlpementation of shutil.copy2() and shutil.copystat() under question for symlinks. Also it's not clear in documentation behaviour of these functions on symlinks. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib) messages: 136928 nosy: docs@python, mmarkk priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python does not support lutime() function type: feature request versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12183> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
