What happens if you do something like this? It should generate more debugging output. cd tests/mv VERBOSE=yes make TESTS=no-target-dir > lorenz 57% /sbin/rm -rf ./tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp > Cannot remove directory ./tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp/26138: File exists > Cannot remove directory ./tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp: File exists > lorenz 58% ls -lad ./tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp/26138 > drwxr-xr-x 3 schwarz user 512 Jul 2 13:28 > ./tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp/26138 > lorenz 59% ls -la ./tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp/26138 > total 2 > drwxr-xr-x 3 schwarz user 512 Jul 2 13:28 . > drwxr-xr-x 3 schwarz user 512 Jul 2 13:28 .. > lorenz 60% > > do you have an idea what is going wrong here??? Possibly you have a process whose working directory is tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp/26138. That would explain both the original failure, and the failure of your attempt to clean up manually. The no-target-dir script does a "cd tests/mv/no-target-dir.tmp/26138". I wouldn't expect to see the behavior you're observing, though, since that script should exit right away. Perhaps it is generating a subprocess that isn't exiting, on your host? Anyway, the VERBOSE=yes business might tell you what is going wrong. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
