Subject: a bug in zsh?
Date: Thu, 25 Jul 1996 15:49:31 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <199607251249.PAA14251@christine.tpo.fi> (raw)
Hi!
From the docs this seems to be the right address to ask about a bug.
The system: Sun Sparc
Operating system: Solaris 2.4 or Solaris 2.5
ZSH-version 2.6-beta19, 3.0pre2, 3.0pre3
BUG: when option chaselinks is set and I run zsh on a host
which has automounted homedirectories command 'pwd'
does weird things (i.e. changes directory to some random
directory that was first mounted using automount).
I traced this to zgetcwd in compat.c, it tries to traverse
filesystem backwards looking for the path it came from, but
chdir("..") from a automounted directory is not same as chdir
into the parent of that directory, so this traversal fails.
Any suggestions other than turning chaselinks off?
