Hi,
I encounter an issue while working with glibc with script
scripts/mkinstalldirs. In scriptversion=2018-03-07.03; # UTC.
I had a symbolic link lib64->lib and the folder lib did not exist.
The glibc installing process is calling ./scripts/mkinstalldirs [..]/lib64
which failed to mkdir -p it.
I made a working patch for my case, which need to be reworked as a loop (As I
use the script with a single argument $@ and not a list of them).
Here is my solution:
