I used XulRunner built from hg trunk pulled today Reproducible: Always Actual Results: it copies the target file or directory the link points to instead of copying the link it self. So both copyTo and copyToFollowingLinks do exactly the same. Expected Results: copyTo should not follow the link but should copy the link. https://developer.mozilla.org/en/NsIFile/copyTo https://developer.mozilla.org/en/NsIFile/copyToFollowingLinks
