Description Jeremy Messenger 2003-11-17 23:47:38 UTC 
In FreeBSD, it doesn't work so I had to patch it to make work. I am 
wondering if it will work on Linux too if it change to 'mkdir -p'? If no, 
then don't worry and go ahead close this. Or, you can add on check OS if 
you want to.

Thanks. 'mkdir --parents' is GNU syntax, but 'mkdir -p' is available
on Linux as well. So the patch doesn't hurt there. It's in CVS now.

Doesn't FreeBSD use the GNU utils?

Nope, not on mkdir. We do have gmake, GNU diff and etc. It's depend 
on, there have some BSD and GNU. :-)

Thanks for add others and here in CVS, that should reduce the patches 
in the FreeBSD ports tree. I am a maintainer of deskutils/gdesklets.
