-p does not use the mode from -m for parent directories:
# mkdir -p -m 700 foo/bar
# ls -ld foo foo/bar
This works as documented. The -m switch only modifies the permissions
of the leaf directory, the parent directories are created with only the
umask taken

The actual problem is the reverse of the original complaint.
Coreutils should reject a usage like 'date -d Tue Jan 14 08:25:26
EDT
2008 +%s', because that time stamp is invalid. Coreutils is not
smart enough to correctly
Hi,
The wc seems not working correctly, say for example
wc -l filename | cut -c1-8
should only give the lines, but this your version of wc, behaves
differently. for small size files it does not reserve first 8 colums for
size so get the file name as well
All others give this
$ wc -l test.ksh |
I'm running coreutils 6.9 on leopard 10.5.1.
% cp file1 file2
works correctly. However:
% cp -p file1 file2
cp: 'file1' no such file or directory
What's really strange is that the cp ***does*** correctly occur
(with permissions being preserved). Why the error message?
