Info @ www.ii.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Subject: [gentoo-dev] dosym X-Archives-Salt: 985d1649-94fa-44b8-8a24-858fcb2f49af X-Archives-Hash: e6f87bba81a06aab2f551f3f5cb89708 I'm trying to create symlinks in an ebuild using dosym but an having some problems. I do the following: dosym /usr/xyz/file /usr/abc/file or dosym ${D}/usr/xyz/file /usr/abc/file but all I get in /usr/abc is a broken symlink. The directory /usr/xyz has file in it and /usr/abc has file -> /usr/xyz/file but ls shows a flashing red broken symlink and if I go to /usr/abc and do ./file it says no such file or directory. Looking at dosym all it does is ln -snf Target ${D}/link What am I missing here? Thanks. -- Brett I. Holcomb -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
