Thanks Dustin, I'm not entirely sure what the motivations were for fts but I think it's to do with sanity checking to ensure that nothing has been moved around underneath a file system traversal... But again, not entirely sure about that.
One thing that does worry me is that I have no idea where else fts is used... coreutils and findutils so far but could well be in other places - which i guess would be the good thing about a kernel fix. When I tested on MacOSX I also tested on Ubuntu 9.10 with the same version (7.4). I compiled it with the default configure options (apart from install location). -- du crashes when traversing nfs mounted .snapshot directories https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506798 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
