Python 3.2a1+ (py3k:83811, Aug 8 2010, 09:00:22) [GCC 4.2.4 (Ubuntu 4.2.4-1ubuntu4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import os, shutil >>> open('a', 'w').write('a') 1 >>> open('b', 'w').write('b') 1 >>> os.chmod('b', 000) >>> shutil.move('a', 'b') >>> open('b').read() 'a' >>> This is the correct behaviour on Unix, so I'd say this can be closed off. ---------- nosy: +bbrazil _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1076515> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
