-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to James Youngman on 8/27/2007 4:31 PM: > If applications are supposed to be able to use _PC_CASE_INSENSITIVE to > figure out if rename("a","A") should be a no-op, then there is an > assumption that the kernel and the userspace have identical ideas > about case conversion (that is whether the source and destination file > names differ only by case). I'm not sure how that could happen. Paul Eggert already identified this as the first major hurdle to be resolved: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2007-08/msg00118.html - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
