Replying to [comment:28 drkirkby]:
> I believe the {{{cp -a}}} will only be executed on Linux, so it's not a
massive problem here, but note that is note that {{{-a}}} is not an option
defined by POSIX, so is unportable and will break on some systems. Was
there a good reason for using {{{-a}}}? Unless there was, it would be good
to get into the habbit of using a more portable alternative
{{{[ `uname -p` = "x86_64" ]}}} isn't portable either, this might give
"unknown" even on Linux; {{{uname -m}}} should be better.
Also, I think {{{ln -s ...}}} should be {{{ln -snf ...}}} (or at least
{{{ln -sf ...}}}).
