Following is the list of cpio-related reports to bug-gnu-utils.

Many of them appear to be fixed, but quite a number of them is

probably still waiting for being handled. The list is divided

into two parts, the messages are in somehow arbitrary order.

I have seen corrupted files as a result of using the

pass-through option in cpio. The corruption occurs when

active/in-use (and growing) files are being copied. The problem

is that the file size has

does not copy, which is very handy for seeing cpio's progress
