When the wocky directory is empty, that suggests the submodule has not been checked out. > What are the possible ways to fix this? When cloning, use --recurse-submodules. Or, use `git submodule update --init --recursive` after cloning. Should you be preparing a patch for packaging, you can also work around such git problems by using a recursive diff between two clones of wocky. You may need to tweak the diffs with sed. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/ _______________________________________________ SoaS mailing list SoaS@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/soas
