Bug Description
Binary package hint: dolphin
In trying to work around the Dolphin directory copy bug reported earlier, I dropped to the command line to perform an old fashioned file copy. I was stunned when I saw the following two errors:
cp: cannot create regular file `/media/
cp: cannot create regular file `/media/
The source directory had the following:
DoeHistory.java~ doeHistory.java~
surchargeRate.java~ SurchargeRate.java~
It appears something in the CP process is ignoring case. The copy command couldn't have been simpler.
