similar to: Preserving symbolic links on the destination machine

I am seeing a problem with the way the rsync of symbolic links is done. Here is a simple example to duplicate this issue: prompt> # Create a test case to show rsync of symbolic link problem prompt> mkdir foo bar prompt> touch foo/file1 bar/file2 prompt> ln -s bar/file2 file prompt> rsync -av . ../duplicate building file list ... done created directory ../duplicate ./ bar/

rsync -aub foo/ bar/ will always overwrite a file in bar with a symbolic link of the same name in foo. And there is no backup written. Is this a bug, or is there a command-line option to change this behavior? In particular, I'd like to prevent the overwriting of regular files with symbolic links and send a warning message to the screen if it cannot be determined which is more recent.

I'm trying to synchronize a particularly troublesome directory structure on a SunOS box to a PC. I really want all symbolic links resolved to real files on the PC when everything is done. I can't seem to find any combination of parameters that will accomplish this. It boils down to two problems. 1. It seems like that even if I exclude a symbolic link that is a directory it is not

Full_Name: Bruce W. Morlan Version: 1.5.1 OS: SunOS 5.8 Submission from: (NULL) (129.176.151.124) I am using an R-package that reads from files if the files are physically in the startup directory, but fails to read if I use symbolically linked files as in "ln -s real_file linked_as_file" I did not see this listed in the existing bugs.

Hi, To my knowledge, Ryacas can do symbolic computation in R, like Mathematica or Maple. I wonder if it (or any other R package) can solve symbolically a system of equations? I have a system of four equations in four variables (non-linear, but not very hard to solve) and wonder if Ryacas or any other package can do it. I do not find the solution in Ryacas. Can it find a symbolic solution

Dear List: Is any one aware of a package that would extend the D() function and allow for one to maximize a likelihood function symbolically? Something akin to Solve[x==0, parameter] function in Mathematica? Clearly R has the capacity to _compute_ MLEs given a set of data. But, I'm looking for a package that would allow for me to define the likelihood function, find the 1st order partial

Normally, I do symbolics in Maple, or Mathematica, but I'm trying to write a simple script for students to handle some *very* simple calculations (for other purposes) with matrix or vector elements, where the elements are coded symbolically. What I've tried with *partial" success is use of the tilde (~) operator. So, for example, consider a simple vector: test=matrix(c(~

Hello, I'm trying to do some differential equation modeling in R using the package 'deSolve.' Briefly, I'm trying to use the law of mass action (the details of which aren't really important) to structure a vector of rate equation which will be passed into an ODE function and solved with associated functions from 'deSolve.' Roughly what this entails is scanning

I'm having a problem with extlinux booting to a Linux kernel image and initial ramdisk with a symbolic link. My /boot looks like this: extlinux.conf extlinux.sys initrd.img -> initrd.img-2.6.22.1 initrd.img-2.6.22.1 vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.22.1 vmlinuz-2.6.22.1 The relevant section of my extlinux.conf file is this: label 1 kernel /boot/vmlinuz append initrd=/boot/initrd.img The error

I run SAMBA 3.6.15 on a Solaris 10 server that acts as a portal for my MS Windows users into a large number of UNIX servers providing amongst other things web-servers and ftp-servers. The SAMBA server has these varied resources all mounted as NFS mounts. In each users home directory there are symbolic links that take the users to their specific resource. /home/user/web-site -> /web-site

include/llvm/Support/FileSystem.h has file_type which enumerates the file system’s view of the file type. One of the values is “symlink_file”. But because the Unix implementation of status() calls stat() instead of lstat(), if the path refers to a symbolic link, the link is followed. There’s no way to get information about the symbolic link itself. I think changing status() to call lstat() is

Since I do not see my last messages in the samba mail archive (I replied myself), here's the last one I sent with some more information (so hopefully they arrive now for everybody?): I just found out this is not only happening on the osx clients by mounting the share on the server: All this below happens on an linux arch server mounting the own share: mount //ip.addr/Programs ./tmp -o

Dear Rxperts.. Got a couple of quick q's.. I am using R in windows environment (both 32-bit and 64-bit) a) Is there a way to create symbolic links to some data files? b) How do I read data from symbolic links? Thanks so much.. Santosh [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

unlink fails to remove symbolic links. This is more prominent now -- when a package creates symbolic links during installation, 00LOCK is not removed.

If it is one time operation you can call 'realpath' (http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#guestfs_realpath) first to resolve symlink. -- +380979184774 Mykola Ivanets пт, 28 черв. 2019 о 11:11 Chintan Patel <Chintan.Patel@microsoft.com> пише: > > HI, > > I’m trying to use copu-out command to copy files from remote disk but it’s not working if the file is symbolic
