Package: gpscorrelate
Version: 1.5.6-1+b2
Severity: normal
Hi, if the images to be correlated are symbolic links, then after
correlating:
1) The original file is truncated to 0 length
2) The symbolic link is turned into a normal file, which holds the image
data.
This behaviour caused me a serious problem: first, I created a directory
where I created symlinks to all the images I wanted to correlate, then I
ran the program, and then -- after seeing that all my original files
were truncated to 0 length and without looking at the symlinks and
therefore not noticing that they had inherited the file data -- I
deleted the symlink directory. Result: all images lost!
