Error description
The WCM public API method WebContentLibraryService.copyLibrary incorrectly preserves the version history property of each copied item. If the copied items are then modified and saved, a new version will incorrectly be created on the source item instead of the newly created item (as the internal version history property still references the version history object from the original item in the repository). Note: Because the copyLibrary method uses the library export functionality to extract the source data, only the current version of each item is expected to be exported (and all version history will be ignored).
Local fix
Problem summary
The WCM public API method WebContentLibraryService.copyLibrary incorrectly preserves the version history property of each copied item. If the copied items are then modified and saved, a new version will incorrectly be created on the source item instead of the newly created item (as the internal version history property still references the version history object from the original item in the repository). Note: Because the copyLibrary method uses the library export functionality to extract the source data, only the current version of each item is expected to be exported (and all version history will be ignored).
Problem conclusion
The code was updated to ensure the internal version history property is not ignored and not being copied for each processed item during the library export.
Temporary fix
