When running the Quilt 0.67 test suite on Solaris, I encountered the following error in 'backup-files' test:
... [238] $ $(@D)/quilt/scripts/backup-files -B backup/ -b dir/link -- failed Copying dir/link == Copying dir/link cp: cannot stat 'dir/link': No such file or directory != ~
This is because the ln defaults can be slightly different depending on the platform. While on Linux `ln` default to `ln -P`, on Solaris (and possibly other platforms) it defaults to `ln -L`.
It can be reproduced with the following anywhere: $ ln -s link foo # link doesn't exist $ ln -L foo backup ln: failed to access 'foo': No such file or directory $ ln -P foo backup # success
This difference is best resolved by explicitly using the `-P` flag (patch is attached).
