unable to copy directory recursively to a vfat partition |
Date: |
Sat, 17 May 2008 15:46:43 +0200 |
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.
Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
Copying a directory recursively in dired to a vfat partition fails because
`dired-copy-file-recursive' calls `set-file-modes' on directories after creating
them. This behaviour appears to be new in 22.2, same recursive copy worked in
22.1.
If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
`bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
If you would like to further debug the crash, please read the file
/usr/share/emacs/22.2/etc/DEBUG for instructions.

Checked in, thanks.
