I was working on a package that I maintain when I noticed that a file was installed in /etc instead of /sw/etc. The problem was related to my poor understanding of python distutils, nevertheless when I tried to remove the package to fix my error fink removed the /etc that in fact is sym-link to /private/etc.
Runnning Disk Utility recreated /etc sym-link, but I was wondering why fink removed the link and not only the file that my package put there. Here there is the wrong package content:
drwxr-xr-x root/admin 0 2004-11-16 11:17:37 ./etc/ -rw-r--r-- root/admin 1666 2004-01-18 16:29:44 ./etc/pyxrc drwxr-xr-x root/admin 0 2004-11-16 11:17:37 ./sw/ ...
Now that I've fixed it those line read:
drwxr-xr-x root/admin 0 2004-11-16 14:40:12 ./sw/ drwxr-xr-x root/admin 0 2004-11-16 14:40:06 ./sw/etc/ -rw-r--r-- root/admin 1666 2004-01-18 16:29:44 ./sw/etc/pyxrc ...
Could you explain me why this happens?
Thanks in advance, Andrea.
