It's more complicated than simply deciding that the opposite default makes sense. The reason that `setup-plt` and `raco setup` are the same program has to do with bootstrapping and compatibility, and that constrains he implementation. I think there must be a better way to implement the distinction, though. > > You can work around the problem by supplying `-l` before > > `mycollection`. > > > > At Thu, 27 Feb 2014 14:56:58 +0100, Tobias Hammer wrote: > >> Hi, > >> > >> if i use a softlink on linux to call raco, raco setup behaves strangely > >> different. > >> > >> Reproduce with > >> raco setup -xiIdD --no-planet --avoid-main --force mycollection > >> [compile output] > >> > >> ln -s `which raco` myraco > >> ./myraco setup -xiIdD --no-planet --avoid-main --force mycollection > >> open-input-file: cannot open input file > >> path: <<current director>>/mycollection > >> system error: No such file or directory; errno=2 > >> > >> From what i could trace, the link gets passed to racket via -N and raco > >> setup somehow uses this to check what it should do.
