Bug 103384 – app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets uses GNU-ish cp -a

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 103487
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2005-08-22 15:29:52 UTC]

As per summary, cp -a won't work on BSD and Darwin userlands. 
 
The attached patch uses cp -pR instead and allows it to be installed fine. 
 
Thanks, 
Diego

Maybe -pPR is a better alternative to -a on BSD/Darwin?

(prevents from following symlinks)

"The less, the best" usually, I haven't found symlinks there, and I don't 
think there will be in such a package. 
But yeah if you want to be completely safe, -pPR is the full replacement of 
-a.
