Last week already I replied to your bug tracker item #1961744 asking a couple of specific questions about how things behave on 10.5, with no response as of yet. 1) among others there was the question 'what does "man cp" tell about the -P flag ? ' I was suspicious because of the warnings "cp: Warning: the meaning of `-P' will change in the future to conform to POSIX. Use `--parents' for the old meaning, and `--no-dereference' for the new one." that I saw in the log-file you had posted there. The obvious interpretation was that since in all previous MacOSX systems the meaning was "--no-dereference", which was also the new one, the interpretation of "-P" remained safe for now.. I was still suspicious and wanted to see the man-page extract. From what you post here above, this seems indeed wrong, and either you have a non-standard (i.e., also not coreutils) cp somewhere in your path, or Apple indeed changed in 10.5 the meaning of '-P' backwards to some "old meaning" from pre-MacOSX times... 2) As to Alexander's reply, > c++ -Wno-long-double -D_REENTRANT -Wall -D__MACOSX__ -DUSE_ESD=1 - > I/sw2/src/fink.build/pwlib1-1.10.10-2/pwlib-1.10.10/include -O2 -O3 > -fno-common -dynamic -fno-common -dynamic -fno-common -dynamic -fno- > exceptions -fno-exceptions -fno-exceptions -fno-exceptions -c > pipechan.cxx -o /sw2/src/fink.build/pwlib1-1.10.10-2/pwlib-1.10.10/ > lib/obj_Darwin_ppc_r/pipechan.o > pipechan.cxx: In member function 'BOOL PPipeChannel::PlatformOpen > (const > PString&, const PStringArray&, PPipeChannel::OpenMode, BOOL, BOOL, > const > PStringToString*)': > /usr/include/unistd.h:481: error: too many arguments to function > 'pid_t > setpgrp()' > pipechan.cxx:295: error: at this point in file another question I asked in your bug tracker item was : "under 10.4, man setpgrp and man setpgid refer to the same manpage, and they are defined as identical. What exactly has changed in 10.5 in this respect ?" Had I got an answer to those (and the other) questions those issues would have been cured since long. But if people don't answer questions raised on their own tracker items ...
