Under cygwin 1.5
when filename.exe exists
/usr/bin/install filename /tmp creates /tmp/filename.exe
/usr/bin/cp filename /tmp creates /tmp/filename.exe
/usr/bin/install filename /tmp/filename creates /tmp/filename.exe
/usr/bin/cp filename /tmp/filename creates /tmp/filename.exe
Under cygwin 1.7
when filename.exe exists
/usr/bin/install filename /tmp creates /tmp/filename
/usr/bin/cp filename /tmp creates /tmp/filename
/usr/bin/install filename /tmp/filename creates /tmp/filename
/usr/bin/cp filename /tmp/filename creates /tmp/filename
Is this the expected behaviour ?
Ciao
Volker
