I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 15.04 to Ubuntu 15.10 beta 2. After doing a package upgrade on 30 September 2015 I noticed that the gvfs package updated.
I have now tested transferring files via USB from my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 phone to my Ubuntu 15.10 desktop and I am pleased to report that the timestamp is correctly preserved. I should add that it has been a very frustrating long wait (over two years), for this critical bug to be fixed. Such a long delay is potentially damaging to Ubuntu as bugs of this nature should receive top priority. Mobile phones and tablets are now a way of life and it is simply unacceptable to lose the date information on a file that is transferred from a phone to a PC - it is a form of "data corruption". I am grateful to the software developers who fixed the bug in time for the release of Ubuntu 15.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1175947 Title: gvfs-copy --preserve doesn't work with MTP devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/1175947/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
