Hello,

I am trying to create a copy-on-write union where the read-only backing file
system is on NFS:

~# mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/mnt/data/src:/mnt/nfs/src=ro none /mnt/src

Files show up correctly in /mnt/src, and I can create files, but I get an
error when copying a file which already exists on /mnt/nfs/src:

~# cd /mnt/src
/mnt/src# ls somefile
somefile
/mnt/src# cp somefile /tmp
cp: skipping file `somefile', as it was replaced while being copied
/mnt/src# touch newfile
/mnt/src# cp newfile /tmp
/mnt/src#

The system is Debian sid on i386, kernel 2.6.15 (custom compiled) with
unionfs 1.1.3.

Any ideas what may be wrong?

Thanks,

Marcus
