[Bug-stow] Does not work -d option with the user directory on FreeBSD

[Hiroyuki Iwatsuki]

Hello,

I am using GNU Stow 2.2.0 on FreeBSD.

I have specified -d $HOME/local/stow to Stow.

Unfortunately, Stow do not work.

% LANG=C stow -d /home/don/local/stow -S mono-git --verbose=3
stow dir is /usr/home/don/local/stow

stow dir path relative to target /home/don/local is ../../../usr/home/don/local/stow
cwd now /home/don/local
cwd restored to /usr/home/don/src/mono-git/_build_
cwd now /home/don/local
stow: ERROR: The stow directory ../../../usr/home/don/local/stow does not contain package mono-git (No such file or directory)
[1]    62559 exit 2     LANG=C stow -d /home/don/local/stow -S mono-git --verbose=3

However, I have specified the real path of home directory, Stow is working fine.

% LANG=C stow -d /usr/home/don/local/stow -S mono-git --verbose=3
stow dir is /usr/home/don/local/stow

stow dir path relative to target /usr/home/don/local is stow

Is this bug? or, my environment problem?

FYI, /home directory is symlink from /usr/home on FreeBSD.

% LANG=C ls -l /home

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  8 Feb  2  2011 /home@ -> usr/home

My environment is:

% stow --version

stow (GNU Stow) version 2.2.0
