Description Enrico Scholz 2001-11-21 14:55:58 UTC

Description of Problem:

When --rebuilding mozilla, there will be created dangling symlinks in
the buildroot and the %install-stage fails; e.g.

| $ ls -l platformHTMLBindings.xml 
| lrwxrwxrwx    1 ensc     ensc           63 11-21 15:48 platformHTMLBindings.xml -> ../../../../content/xbl/builtin/unix/./platformHTMLBindings.xml


Probably a changed behavior of /bin/cp is responsible. When changing

| $COPY -vrP ${i} ${TARGET_DIR}

to

| $COPY -vrp --parents ${i} ${TARGET_DIR}

in mozilla-copy-package-files.sh (%{SOURCE8}) all things are fine.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

mozilla-0.9.6-0
fileutils-4.1.1-1

Comment 1 Christopher Blizzard 2002-08-29 21:22:35 UTC

This is fixed in recent builds.
