I found this by code inspection. On SELinux, "ls -l" doesn't output
the "+" indicating an alternate access method is in place, unless you
also specify -Z. But the point of the "+" is to warn users that the
ordinary permissions don't tell the whole story. So, on SELinux, the
"+" should be output
Hi.
du seems to miss files/directorys on vfat filesystems. Only a certain amount of
the filesystem (which seem to correspond to almost exactly 10 files) will
be processed, for the rest of the filesystem the following error is printed,
for each remaining directory:
du: `foobar': No such file
Hello.
I am trying to get to the center of Ubuntu Bug #7560 and Gnome Bug
#108307. This "bug" is over 4 years old. This relates to how gnome-vfs
treats files moved to the trash, but I believe it boils down to how
coreutils treats file/folder permissions. The steps to reproduce:
cd
mkdir -p test/t

Okay, thank you. I just wanted

Two bug fixes so far:
"ls -l" would not output "+" on SELinux hosts unless -Z was also given.
"rm" would fail to unlink a non-directory when run in an environment
in which the user running rm is capable of unlinking a directory.
