BTW, my first reflex was to write a rename wrapper. Unfortunately, with that you have to choose between a racy implementation and an imperfect openat/renameat-based one (imperfect because openat fails when the parent dir isn't readable). Well, there is one other choice: always strip trailing slashes on SRC, but imho, penalizing every rename sycall under Linux is not an option, especially when I prefer the Linux rename syscall semantics. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
