Comment 1 Ben Powers 2004-08-24 02:41:55 UTC
i'm on an iBook G4 1Ghz btw, if that helps.
Comment 2 Nick Dimiduk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-06 12:36:58 UTC
The same thing happens with bash-2.05b-r5.  dosym appears to not like parameters which contain dots (.) when executed on osx.  I'll attach a patch to fix the ebuild but someone familiar with/working on portage should have a look at fixing dosym.
Comment 3 Nick Dimiduk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-06 12:37:50 UTC
sorry, that should read bash-3.0-r5.

The only thing I can imagine is that MacOS doesn't understand ln -n

Could you please try:

ln -sfn $HOME/asdf.1.2 $HOME/sdfg.3.4
ls -ld $HOME/sdfg.3.4
rm -f $HOME/sdfg.3.4

and post those results.

pathose@luna ~ $ ln -sfn $HOME/asdf.1.2 $HOME/sdfg.3.4

pathose@luna ~ $ ls -ld $HOME/sdfg.3.4
lrwxr-xr-x  1 pathose  pathose  23 28 Sep 14:47 /Users/pathose/sdfg.3.4 -> /Users/pathose/asdf.1.2

pathose@luna ~ $ ls -ld $HOME/sdfg.3.4
ls: /Users/pathose/sdfg.3.4: No such file or directory
Comment 7 Nick Dimiduk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-28 12:01:11 UTC
Sorry, that last entry is the results of the directory listing after the rm has been issued.

Also, from the ln man page:

SYNOPSIS
     ln [-fhinsv] source_file [target_file]
     ln [-fhinsv] source_file ... target_dir
     link source_file target_file
...
     The options are as follows:
...
     -h    If the target_file or target_dir is a symbolic link, do not follow
           it.  This is most useful with the -f option, to replace a symlink
           which may point to a directory.
...
     -n    Same as -h, for compatibility with other ln implementations.
Comment 8 Hasan Khalil (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-23 12:58:23 UTC
This depends on bug 67162. Will take a look at it when 67162 has gotten somewhere. Until then, this 
bug should remain frozen.
