Timothee Besset <tt...@idsoftware.com> added the comment: I am not sure what shutil does with symlinks already. At the very least it should not abort the operation.
Ideally I feel it should create the same symlink pointing to a possibly missing file, since that's what '/bin/cp' does, and shutil.copytree is broadly understood as a drop in replacement.. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6547> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
