rm not rm'ing after prompting for confirmation

[Hugo van der Merwe <hugovdm@mail.com>]

Hello,

Has anyone else encountered this problem? If rm prompts for
confirmation, either because root has 'alias rm="rm -i"' or because the
file is read-only, after saying "y" to the prompt, the file is still
there. If I rm -f it, so that it doesn't prompt, the file does get
deleted.

I am following unstable, and am relatively up to date. (Maybe 3 or 4
days behind.)

Anyone else experience this? Or any ideas?

Thanks,
Hugo van der Merwe
