Hi,I want to test a current coreutils from git with clang's UBSAN. For this, I need to apply a patch to lib/linebuffer.c and lib/mpsort.c locally. For this, it is not suitable if 'bootstrap' creates these files as symbolic links. So I run $ ./bootstrap --copy --no-git --gnulib-srcdir=$GNULIB_SRCDIR But it *still* creates the symlinks, despite my explicit use of the '--copy' option. This comes from bootstrap.conf line 349. It shouldn't pass the option '--symlink' to gnulib-tool when I passed the '--copy' option.
Right. Since --symlink is the default, we can just drop that I think. I'll push the attached in a while. Marking this as done. cheers, Pádraig
