Re: is there a bug in cp command ?

[🦓 <czyborra@gmail.com>]

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1106192 got filed now.
why does reportbug not present me with coreutils' latest git-history now?

why is there no apt debug coreutils mechanism yet?
presenting everything in git-history with gdb-symbols and all object files for quick incremental makes yet?

whose idea was it to strip an open-source gnunix of its sources and symbols and ungzipped text/plain files?

why isn't it duck soup yet to hit apt ifixed coreutils after apt debug coreutils?

wasn't apt meant to be a packaging tool?

why are we still using algol languages mutating each cell randomly with no superlean abstraction?

It's more likely to be something in your environment.  What does "type -a cp" say?

 

It is likely to say Debian 12 environment in bugs.debian.org/coreutils after Uwu's reportbug cp
