[Bug 332646] Re: sftp does not set timestamps

 

Yes, I can confirm it's still an issue in 16.04 using gvfs:amd64
1.27.4-1ubuntu1. It's almost the seven year anniversary of the bug, too!

Title:
  sftp does not set timestamps

Status in gvfs:
  Confirmed
Status in gvfs package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gvfs

  when copying or moving files to a directory mounted over sftp, the
  time stamps are not preserved.

  this affects both hardy and intrepid (in hardy, it was tested with a
  patched version of nautilus hence that version used to forget
  timestamps on copy anyway). in both cases, i tested it locally and
  everything was preserved as it should be.

  moreover, when moving, nautilus first displays the correct time stamp
  and only on refreshing shows the wrong updated one.

  as timestamps can be considered considered important information, i
  suggest this bug be treated as "losing data without notice".
