Package: convmv Version: 1.12 Owner: bubu...@debian.org there is a posible data loss bug in the convmv versions <= 1.14 which are in Debian distris.
from the changelog: - fix a bug where on case-insensitive filesystems --upper and --lower did not work because we thought the new file would already exist (stat "foo" and stat "FOO" are the same, yeah. The obvious workaround to use "--replace" would delete the files on case-insensitive filesystems instead, which was even worse. Case conversion should be working well now, I tested it on Darwin and on case-insensitive XFS. The latter one is a bit buggy by the way, see https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39512. convmv works around that bug, too. The initial bug report comes from https://trac.macports.org/ticket/29563 As probably an update to 1.15 is against Debian policies: If you diff 1.14 against 1.15 the fix for this bug is the hunk that starts with "# the following is to handle case-insensitive filesystems:" ... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
