#2933 closed task (wontfix)

Remove 'cp -a' commands

Description

Several sets of instructions use 'cp -a'. This can break time stamp file/package management, and lead to invalid permissions. Replace with 'cp -R' or 'install -mxxx' as appropriate, unless absolutely needed.

This is a packaging issue and users who are using this method are well aware of the shortfalls of it. Marking as WONTFIX.
