Actually, unless I'm wrong, there is a lot much stuff broken if .pc is a symlink:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ mkdir D [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp$ cd D/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/D$ mkdir patches [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/D$ mkdir PC [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/D$ ln -s PC .pc [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/D$ quilt new AZE The working tree was created by an older version of quilt. Please run 'quilt upgrade'. I cannot even create a patch in such condition. Could you please give some more details on how you managed to use symlinked .pc so far? Thanks, Mt.
