Hi,
I see you fixed that already for for cp -a http://marc.info/?t=124897089600001&r=1&w=2 But it does not together with option -link: cd /tmp/ ln -s somewhere symlink touch -h -t "197001010000" symlink cp -a symlink symlink-a cp -al symlink symlink-al ls -l symlink* lrwxrwxrwx 1 rudi users 9 1970-01-01 00:00 symlink -> somewhere lrwxrwxrwx 1 rudi users 9 1970-01-01 00:00 symlink-a -> somewhere lrwxrwxrwx 1 rudi users 9 2011-03-29 13:44 symlink-al -> somewhere I'm using core utils coreutils 8.9 (opensuse 11.4). BTW with coreutils 7.1 and 6.9 it behaves the other way, -al is correct but -a not. So probably -al is broken since you fixed -a in 7.5. cu, Rudi
