There is a fast configure check, which I added to prevent actually creating the link to the source directory, if it wouldn't be a real link, but a copy instead. Does that check not work for you? It works here: After replacing '$ln_s "$link_dest" "$link_name"' with 'cp -r "$link_dest" "$link_name"' it doesn't create the src link and falls back to using the full path instead. > Could try to use the windows link creating function, but thats > probably too much trouble. That would be easy, if you can tell me which command that is and in which environment it should work. > If we already have a way to fallback to the "old way", maybe this > could be put under a OS conditional, ie. exclude msys/cygwin? That could be done, but I don't think it is necessary, as the current check should already be sufficient.
