HI! ----
While doing testing with UNC paths I found that GNU mkinstalldirs does not handle UNC paths - for example creating subdirs in //foo.bar.com/chickmonster/dir1/dir2/ will *partially* appear in /foo.bar.com/chickmonster/dir1/dir2/ Workaround is in https://github.com/kofemann/ms-nfs41-client/blob/296286c364548eba9b8e692521910fd59a99ebf7/tests/nfsbuildtest/nfsbuildtest.ksh93#L121 ... which basically replaces the GNU mkinstalldirs script with a version which just calls mkdir -p "$@" Questions: - Does Cygwin have any testsuite which tests with UNC paths, or do I have to write one myself (for ms-nfs41-client and ms-nfs42-client we have stuff like https://github.com/kofemann/ms-nfs41-client/blob/master/tests/nfsbuildtest/nfsbuildtest.ksh93 which runs as part of the CI, both /cygdrive/$devletter/... and UNC path) ? - Does anyone know whether there is a single upstream for GNU mkinstalldirs, or do the various GNU projects just copy the script around ? ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.ma...@nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;) -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
