Description Branimir Amidzic 2016-12-13 19:36:25 UTC

When I type rm -o in Konsole and reply "n" (for avoiding the deletion of a file) the file gets removed anyway. It doesn't matter what I type. The file always gets deleted.

I thought this was specific to Konsole, but the same happens with xterm.

The behaviour outside the GUI is as expected.

I'm not sure which component is responsible, so please move it if it belongs to another package. Here's my environment:

If it is also reproducible with xterm, then you should report it directly to coreutils developers via http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/coreutils.html
