I think I may have found a bug in mkdir.
When I try
mkdir -p <relpath>/dir
Everything works fine. However,
mkdir -p <abspath>/dir
it does not matter if the -p is superfluous or not, the directory is
still not made.
So,
try:
mkdir -p $HOME/test
and see if the directory exists, if not (your behaviour matches mine),
try
mkdir $HOME/test
The behaviour I am seeing is that the latter works as expected and the
former fails.
mkdir -p ./test1/test2/test3
works just fine, but not
mkdir -p `pwd`/test1/test2/test3
mark.
