Version: 6.0-1
Severity: minor
If I try to "mv" a file in /tmp (which is 1777) that doesn't belong
to my user, "mv" prints
mv: cannot remove `/tmp/a': Not a directory
which is clearly misleading - it should print "Operation not permitted".
strace shows some legacy behaviour - trying to unlink(), then rmdir(),
although it knows that it's a file (it just copied it
[because it got EXDEV {Invalid cross-device link}] :-).
close(6) = 0
close(5) = 0
unlink("/tmp/a") = -1 EPERM (Operation not
permitted)
open("/tmp/a", O_RDONLY|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK|O_NOFOLLOW) = 5
fstat(5, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=681564, ...}) = 0
close(5) = 0
rmdir("/tmp/a") = -1 EPERM (Operation not
permitted)
Afterwards it looks for translated messages ... so the ENOTDIR must be
determined by looking at the fstat() information.
