Hi,

Seems the culpit here is "cp" (coreutils w/ xattr).
Will report when find a coreutils package w/o xattr (can't compile it due to same error).
Sorry for the noise.

Which coreutils ebuild do you have installed? `emerge --info` missing as well.

Hi,

i've coreutils-6.10-r2 installed.
Problems came from using +xattr USE flag, cp command didn't always work right.
Beside this use reiser4 which may be the main cause it this (fs-based attr).
Now after disabling (xattr) from coreutils everything is fine again.
As this has nothing to do with 'timezone-data' think of closing this Bug ?
Thanks, Rumen

Well, if there should be a problem with coreutils, please reopen. But test with ext3 before, using reiser4 you're definitely on unsupported playground.
