Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
1. I use a disk FAT-32 which is mounted as follows:
LABEL=COMMONFAT32 /media/commonfat32 vfat
iocharset=utf8,users,defaults,umask=000,gid=46 0 0
2. I move images to the disk via Nautilus.
3. I find that the modification time is equals to current time which is
inappropriate.
4. I can see similar problems in bugs:
#314860, #254016, #73452
5. If I remount the disk under the current user everything is fine.
Modification time is preserved.
6. I believe that there are some circumstancies under which Nautilus cannot
preserve mtime.
Is it feasible to warn the user that mtime would be updated after the
operation before starting it?
If I was warned I could take some precautions. The current behavior
leads to loss of rather important information.
Thank you.
