Can anyone please advise what else to do besides installing libglib2.0-0
(2.16.3-1ubuntu3), to make the fix work.
(I installed the new package and nautilus copy still alters the date).
I'd also like to add my comment as to the importance of the above fix:
Like most commenters above, I agree (redoubled in spades!!!) that any
file management system that claims to copy a file without copying
arguably the most important piece if information associated with it (the
modification date), has rocks in its head (if the "standards" say it
should, then the standards are inconsistent with usability).
If people want to record the copy date, then attach a new date - but the
term "modification date" and "date changed" etc are associated with the
logical change to the content, not to the physical placement. (inot just
by long usage with wi*&%ws, but by the common meaning of the terms).
eg, if I move a book from the dining room to the loungeroom, do I expect
the date published to alter???? if I claim to have modified a report, I
do not mean just run it through the photocopier. If you say you have
changed your statement, I take you to mean the content has altered, not
that you have moved it to another bookcase (hard copy) or disk drive
(soft copy), etc, etc, ad nauseam.
