i just wanted to do a test build with the latest svn contents, so i checked out both openwrt/trunk and openwrt/packages: $ svn co https://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk openwrt $ svn co https://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/packages openwrt-packages the next instuctions at that page: $ cd openwrt/package $ ln -fs ../../openwrt-packages/*/* . would appear to just symlink all of the packages into the main tree, but that second command fails thusly: $ ln -sf ../../openwrt-packages//*/* . ln: `./libtool': cannot overwrite directory $ the reason appears to be that the "libtool" directory appears in both checkouts, particularly here: openwrt-packages/libs/libtool/ where it contains the single empty directory "patches." do i understand it correctly that any openwrt package should occur in only one of those two checkouts, so that libtool showing up in both places is wrong? simply deleting that directory out from under openwrt-packages/libtool allowed the symlink to complete properly. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
