make install-tools overwrite previous objj

Reported by Brian Taylor | 2008-11-08 20:03:39 UTC | in 0.6

The current install-tools only puts the objj directory in the right place ( $INSTALL_DIR/share/objj ) if cappuccino hasn't been installed before. All subsequent installs make the new objj directory as a subdirectory of previous $INSTALL_DIR/share/objj .

This is a very boring patch that changes the install-tools line:

cp -fR objj/ $INSTALL_DIR/share/objj

to

cp -fR objj/ $INSTALL_DIR/share/

so that objj will overwrite previous versions.

    • State changed from “resolved” to “open”
    • Tag changed from “patch” to “objj”
    • Assigned user set to “Tom Robinson”

    Turns out this breaks the initial install. I'm assigning this to Tom to figure out, and reverting the patch.

    That's interesting. This patch works fine on the initial install for me.

    Wasn't working for me in OS X. The fix is simple i think though. Just rm anything that already exists at that location before copying it there.

    I believe this is fixed and works in both cases (initial and subsequent) on Linux and OS X.

    I tested on Ubuntu with bash 3.2.25.
