According to the NEWS file in coreutils-9.3, I see this: ** Changes in behavior 'cp -n' and 'mv -n' now issue an error diagnostic if skipping a file, to correspond with -n inducing a nonzero exit status as of coreutils 9.2. Similarly 'cp -v' and 'mv -v' will output a message for each file skipped due to -n, -i, or -u. So it looks like behavior has changed. -- David Cantrell <dcantrell@xxxxxxxxxx> Red Hat, Inc. | Boston, MA | EST5EDT _______________________________________________ test mailing list -- test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to test-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
