[gobolinux-devel] SymLinkProgram question
I saw that when symlinkg a program is used the readlink tool to get the original file, why is this require instead of symlink to files directly? With this scheme you are unable to RemoveProgram when it is installed out of /Programs. Example: /Programs/Foo/Ver -> /Depot/Programs/Foo/Ver /Programs/Foo/Current -> Ver /Depot/Programs/Foo/Ver /System/Links/Executables/dmenu -> /Depot/Programs/Foo/Ver/bin/dmenu [...] When RemoveProgram is executed, entries under /Programs are removed, but the symlinks under /S/Links are not borken, so the are not removed, is safely to remove the readlink command in SymLinkProgram or there is any better solution for this?

And as far as I can see the /Programs/Foo/Ver -> /Depot/Programs/Foo/Ver link is only for the user, so is knows what is installed. Imo it's RemoveProgram that needs the fix, not SymlinkProgram. -- /Jonas Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/ ___ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
