Some directory entries are appearing twice in ls output. E.g. see lib in
the following output:
$ ls -li /usr/local
total 0
1688849860279750 drwxrwx---+ 2 aschulma Users 0 May 7 14:15 bin
2251799813802842 drwxrwx---+ 2 aschulma Users 0 May 7 13:45 etc
562949953541629 drwxrwx---+ 2 aschulma Users 0 May 9 13:19 lib
562949953541629 drwxrwx---+ 2 aschulma Users 0 May 9 13:19 lib
4503599627432958 drwxr-xr-x+ 3 aschulma None 0 Apr 30 15:44 src
1970324837043942 drwxr-xr-x+ 3 aschulma None 0 May 7 13:15 stow
I've seen this once before. In that case I rm'ed one of the duplicates (I
think it was a symlink), and rm happily complied, leaving the other entry in
place. This makes me think that the bug is in the directory structure, and
not in ls.
Andrew.
