[Fink-beginners] symlink for /sw/src (not a question).

[Edward Thome]

I recently replaced a failing drive and moved /sw off of the failing 
drive and then back onto the new drive.  Everything works fine (I read 
the FAQ which said this was expected, but that there might be traps).  
Even such complex things as KDE (which I compiled from source) and the 
system-tetex, system-ghostscript8, and xdvi-system-tetex.

I then moved /sw/src to another partition on that drive (sort of an 
Archival partition rather than an active one) and provided a symlink 
from the old location in /sw to the actual location of the src 
directory.  This, however, does not work.  I get errors during 
installations.

Anyway, no responses necessary as there is room on that partition for 
the src directory.  I was just being anal and the errors force me to be 
a normal person.  :-)
