Description Bernhard Vornefeld 2001-04-20 13:25:41 UTC

(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           konqueror
Version:           2.1 (using KDE 2.1.0 )
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    SuSE
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)
OS:                Linux 2.4.0 i686
OS/Compiler notes: 

I would like to preserve file attributes (especially date and time) during copy/move operations. The "preserving mode" should be default. If preserving is'nt possible in certain situations the user should be prompted for action (compare midnight commander for console).
The default behavior should be adjustable in theKonqueror configuration.

This feature is still missing in KDE 3.1.1. !

Comment 2 eterry 2003-07-20 01:11:25 UTC

I suggest consolidating this with Bug 44357, which appears to be identical and
also has votes.

> The "preserving mode" should be default.
It is (i.e. works for me with a file: to file: copy).

Is this bug about copying to / from other protocols? In that case which ones?

Comment 5 Ron Onstenk 2004-09-13 00:02:30 UTC

It happens for me from ftp://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/... to local directory.

'The "preserving mode" should be default'
If this option can be set where do I check it is set the correct way?

This isn't an option, it's the only mode of operation.

Comment 8 Richard Fish 2005-04-11 21:03:52 UTC

file:/ to file:/ seems ok, but smb:/ to file:/ doesn't preserve mtime in KDE 3.4.

Comment 9 Nicolas Goutte 2005-09-18 02:59:29 UTC

If it is only for remote KIO slaves, then this bug report is the duplicate to bug #55804 (which is already in KIO/General)

Comment 10 Frank Myhr 2006-02-10 00:04:37 UTC

Konqueror 3.4.3 (kubuntu breezy) does not preserve directory/folder modification dates when copying from file:/ to file:/

Can it please be fixed to preserve directory dates as well as file dates?

I'll be sticking with cp -a until this is fixed.

Preserve the mtime of every directory when copying/moving from file: to file: (can't do this for other protocols until KDE4).
