gvfs-copy creates corrupted copies of files
Last modified: 2012-05-30 19:26:29 UTC
When I copy videos (probably any large files) in nautilus or with gvfs-copy some of the copies cannot be played back and differ from the original files. This does not happen with cp and I ran memtest on the machine with no errors. I assume that the root cause of the problem lies in the glib2 package possibly caused by gcc 4.7.0. At this moment I cannot give more hints like last working version and it's difficult to track down as this only happens occasionally. A run in valgrind which produced corrupted copies did not show up any errors. Distribution: Arch Linux * package version(s) glib2 2.32.3-1 gvfs 1.12.3-2 gcc 4.7.0-6 Steps to reproduce: mkdir destination gvfs-copy folder-with-videos/* destination/ diff -r folder-with-videos destination Downstream Report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30061
Sorry I'm not able to reproduce this anymore. See Arch Bugreport for details.
