I have just tried using a target as a file and it does seem to work
with the -f option. It's only when the target is a directory that it
fails:
$ ll
drwxrwxr-x 2 matt matt 4096 Mar 4 14:34 dir1
drwxrwxr-x 2 matt matt 4096 Mar 4 14:34 dir2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 matt matt 4 Mar 4 14:35 link -> dir1
$ ln -s dir2 link
That should be:
$ ln -sf dir2 link
from the ln man page:
-n, --no-dereference
treat destination that is a symlink to a directory as if it
were a normal file
Cheers,
Michael
