Zbyszek Szmek <zbys...@in.waw.pl> added the comment: Review of both patches (python-2.5.1-distutils-aixnfs.patch and dir_util.py.diff) as they are essentially the same:
I think that the test is in wrong place: we would want to ignore those .nfs* files always, not just when checking for symlinks. A separate test at the top of the loop would be better: for n in names: + if n.startswith('.nfs'): + continue src_name = os.path.join(src, n) dst_name = os.path.join(dst, n) if preserve_symlinks and os.path.islink(src_name): BTW: under linux 2.6.20 I see files like: .nfs000000000592413900000036, always of this length, with hexadecimal digits after .nfs). ---------- nosy: +zbysz versions: +Python 3.3 -3rd party, Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7719> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
