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.
Actually gnulib-tool defaults to copying,
so it'll need to be handled differently
