#21297: port command deletes my /opt symlink -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: dh@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: High | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 1.8.0 Keywords: | Port: -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- My /opt is a symlink to a directory on another disk. After upgrading to macports 1.8.0, running port upgrade -c on any outdated port destroys the symlink! {{{ $ ll /opt/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 14 root wheel 476 Sep 11 14:34 local/ $ sudo port upgrade -c py26-logilab-common ---> Computing dependencies for py26-logilab-common ---> Extracting py26-logilab-common ---> Configuring py26-logilab-common ---> Building py26-logilab-common ---> Staging py26-logilab-common into destroot ---> Deactivating py26-logilab-common @0.42.0_0 Error: Deactivating py26-logilab-common 0.42.0_0 failed: No such file or directory $ port -bash: /opt/local/bin/port: No such file or directory $ ll /opt/ ls: /opt/: No such file or directory }}} Needless to say, 1.7 didn't exhibit this behaviour. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macports.org/ticket/21297> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
