Package: fakeroot Version: 1.26-1 Severity: important Control: affects -1 globus-gridftp-server
Using the following test script:
$ cat fakeroot-test.sh
#! /bin/sh
res=0
mkdir newdev
(cd /dev; tar chf - null) | (cd newdev; tar xf -)
ls -l /dev/null
if [ -c /dev/null ] ; then
echo Original is device
else
echo Original is not device
res=1
fi
ls -l newdev/null
if [ -c newdev/null ] ; then
echo Copy is device
else
echo Copy is not device
res=1
fi
rm -rf newdev
exit $res
On most architectures this works as expected:
$ fakeroot ./fakeroot-test.sh
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 17 maj 10.09 /dev/null
Original is device
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 17 maj 10.09 newdev/null
Copy is device
$ echo $?
0
However, on ia64 it fails:
ellert@yttrium:~$ fakeroot ./fakeroot-test.sh
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 May 10 06:51 /dev/null
Original is device
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 May 10 06:51 newdev/null
Copy is not device
ellert@yttrium:~$ echo $?
1
fakeroot 1.26-1 is the latest version of fakeroot built for ia64.
