[issue34374] Shouldn't shutil.copyfile replace link in dst with follow_symlinks set?
Pavel Raiskup added the comment: Check out this default behavior of /bin/cp though: $ mkdir a b $ echo content > a/file $ ln -s non-existing b/file $ cp a/file b cp: not writing through dangling symlink 'b/file' Shouldn't shutil.copy*() refuse to write trough a dangling symlink to non-existent file? (ATM it seems it just silently creates the file, or fails if it can not be created). -- nosy: +Pavel Raiskup ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue34374> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

FWIW, I followed you and andialbrecht's solution, and did some changes to the code (now the code is in PyPi as argparse-manpage). Feel free to take what's considered useful. > So this bug report asks for that work to be done in the ‘argparse’ library. Agreed. > > Installing the manpage is a separate concern. > > Yes, I agree. That is not part of this bug report. I think installation is valid concern; so it should be tracked somewhere. -- ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue14102> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
