:Hi, : :with recent head the following does not work: : :touch foo :chmod 444 foo :cp -p foo bar : :I get :cp: utimes: bar: Permission denied : :Something similar seems to happen during "make dist" in an :autoconf/automake project. : :Cheers, :Johannes
Hmm. Well, the utimes manual page implies that utimes should
succeed if you own the file, even if you do not have write access.
I'll have to augment our access checks slightly to fix this.
