- I built an installer pkg which which put files in /usr/include and
- /usr/man.
-
- Under 2.1, installing & removing the pkg works fine.
- Note that /usr/include and /usr/man are NOT links under 2.1.
-
- Under 3.0, installing seems to work ok, but when the package is removed
- (using the Installer "delete" button), it seems to also remove the
- /usr/include and /usr/man links (but not the directory linked to,
- thank god.)
-
- If the files are installed into the directorys and not through the links,
- everything works, but this won't work for a 2.1 installation.
-
- Is this a known problem or am I doing something wrong? Any help appreciated.
