Package: lfm
Version: 2.2-1
Severity: important

Hi,

I have discovered that it is preferable not to use 'move' of lfm

it is dangerous since it does copy the data differently than any linux
mv function.

lfm leaves chances for desaster of some data is the networking is
failing when one copy over samba or nfs.


It is highly recommended that lfm uses 'mv' for moving directories.

Example:

lfm 
move dvd01 /samba
move dvd02 /samba
with lfm it will takes ages, and it will copy bit per bits.



with mv (utils of bin of linux), it will take 2sec since it simply tell
linux to change the dir position.

I hope it helped 

sincerely
