Maybe this has already been discussed somewhere. If so, my apologies. I'm sending it just for archiving purposes. If an older svn client is used to retrieve the jhalfs trunk, things are not as they should be. I guess some new functionality has been added in newer releases of Subversion to deal with symlinks. Maybe someone knows the exact cutoff svn version. Mine was svn, version 1.0.9 (r11378) compiled Mar 24 2005, 21:43:32
If after doing an svn checkout, the following happens: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/jhalfs-trunk# ./lfs bash: ./lfs: Permission denied and doing: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/jhalfs/trunk# file lfs lfs: ASCII text, with no line terminators If the output above is received, you are affected. The proper output is: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/subversion-1.3.1/jhalfs-trunk# file lfs lfs: symbolic link to `master.sh' Possible solutions: 1. Upgrade svn & re-check out the jhalfs trunk OR 2. create the symbolic links manually after deleting the broken ones. ex: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/jhalfs-trunk# rm lfs [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/jhalfs-trunk# ln -s master.sh lfs -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/alfs-discuss FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
