#13421: mysql5 makes relative links in /opt/local/bin ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: branson@sandsecurity.com | Owner: ryandesign@macports.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.5.2 Resolution: | Keywords: mysql, cpan, Port: mysql5, mysql5-devel | ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment(by ryandesign@macports.org): Are you ''sure'' the problem was relative vs. absolute symlinks? Because your proposed solution of `ln -sf /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/$a /opt/local/bin/$a` does not do the equivalent of what is in the Portfile. What the Portfile does is the equivalent of `ln -sf /opt/local/lib/mysql5/bin/$a /opt/local/bin/$a5` -- note the "5" at the end of every link in /opt/local/bin. Can you please show me exactly the error message you're encountering, and what I need to type here to see it on my system? -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/13421#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
