hi leann, i have finally found the time to test again. the bug is gone in intrepid, but it is still there in hardy kernel Linux 2.6.24-21-generic.
since hardy is LTS, i strongly opt for putting this in one of the next kernel updates. effectively this bug causes data loss. i have a patch, that i have written quite some time before finding the fix in the git tree. it replaces only a few lines of code in fs/hfsplus/dir.c and fixes the data loss problem. if you prefer to only add a minor patch, i can attach it here. leaving this bug 'fix released' since it will work on intrepid. cheers, - till -- hfsplus unlink problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154416 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
