This is ridiculous. Nobody should need to know anything about the internal details of a specific filesystem's implementation when they're writing a userspace application. If the filesystem has chosen to do silly optimizations which doesn't work right when using published apis and methods, it's the filesystem that is broken and not even remotely the application's fault. ______________________________________________________________________ RPM Package Manager http://rpm5.org Developer Communication List rpm-devel@rpm5.org
