Just upgraded to the latest versions moments ago. I had created a symbolic link to a directory some time ago.
If I try and remove the symlink using Bash I get the following error:
rm: cannot remove directory `xxxxx/': Is a directory
If I then empty the contents of the directory and repeat the 'rm xxxxx' command I get the same error. Trying 'rm -df xxxxx' also failed.
I saw several symlink changes last week that effected how 'ant' (ant.sh) no longer worked when $ANT_HOME was a symlink to the real path. Changing to the real path rather than the symlink was a work-around for that problem.
Is there a work-around for not being able to remove symbolic links to directories?
Thanks. Lynn
