#509: tools/dev/install_files.pl did not care about symlinks
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: gerd | Type: todo

Version: 1.0.0 | Severity: medium

Patch: | Platform: linux
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
By executing the command:
> make -n install DESTDIR=/home/<user>/<testdir>
you can see that the perl script "tools/dev/install_files" will be
executed:
/usr/bin/perl tools/dev/install_files.pl \
--buildprefix= \
--prefix=/usr/local \
--exec-prefix=/usr/local \
--bindir=/usr/local/bin \
--libdir=/usr/local/lib \
--includedir=/usr/local/include \
--destdir=/home/gz016/test \
--docdir=/usr/local/share/doc \
--versiondir=/parrot/1.0.0-devel \
MANIFEST MANIFEST.generated
In the destination directory for example /home/gz016/test/local/lib
you can see that libparrot.so is not a symlink to libparrot.so.1.0.0
but in the build directory blib/lib it was.
To leave this as symlink is important for building rpms.
