If you want to reproduce the original file's access rights, you have to pass the right mode flags to os.open(). Of course, this won't recreate symlinks and the like. But I don't think we can do something for that anyway, since we want to replace to happen automatically. People who like to have symlinks for their pyc files probably have their own custom scripts to create pyc files, so they should just re-use them. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17222> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
