Yes we know itimpi, kovidgoyal left this thread with a clear message that he does not want to be bothered about this, more than a year ago. See the first page. So yes, we are on our own for quite a while already

For me it’s a bit weird to use a hardlink on a linux/samba based fileserver. I downloaded the calibre source from http://calibre-ebook.com/get-involved and switched to development mode as described in http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/develop.html. I commented out windows_hardlink call. Calibre 2 now works perfect again without any errors when importing or moving books. |
Nice catch. The hardlink should ofcourse also fail on a windows (CIFS/SAMBA) server since hardlinking only works within a local filesystem. Will try this solution!
