Dear All,
 
I want to delete everything in a base directory but *not* the base dir
itself. (The base dir *must not be deleted* because it is a mount point,
not a dir that can be created/deleted in a normal manner.) If I do this:
 
<delete verbose="true" >
  <fileset dir="${install.common.dir}" />
</delete>

all files are deleted *but* it leaves empty dirs behind. I want the
empty dirs gone. However, if I tell delete to includeemptydirs then the
base dir is deleted too!
 
<delete verbose="true" includeemptydirs="true">
  <fileset dir="${install.common.dir}" />
</delete>

Is this a bug? If not then how can I do this task?
 
Cordially,
 
Miles
