Subject: make modules_install fails with latest fileutils
Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2001 19:38:20 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011120193820.A14068@joshua.mesa.nl> (raw)
Hi,
Just had some problems doing a modules_install with
fileutils-1.1.1-1 (redhat rawhide). The cp command
in there gives a non-zero return value when it is asked
to copy the same file in the argument list:
mkdir bar
cp foo foo bar
cp: will not overwrite just-created `bar/foo' with `foo'
and returns with return value of 1.
This will break 'make modules_install' as it often adds the same module
file as cp argument.
A quick hack:
