Subject: Cygwin setup writing incorrect symlinks for native
Date: Thu, 6 Jan 2022 10:46:13 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <000201d802ea$e13fd790$a3bf86b0$@cl.cam.ac.uk> (raw)
Running Cygwin setup 2.912 with --symlink-type native (or
CYGWIN=winsymlinks:native) is not correctly translating all symlinks. A
default install has these faulty ones:
/etc/pki/tls/cert.pem ->
\??\/etc\pki\ca-trust\extracted\pem\tls-ca-bundle.pem
/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt ->
\??\/etc\pki\ca-trust\extracted\pem\tls-ca-bundle.pem
/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.trust.crt ->
\??\/etc\pki\ca-trust\extracted\openssl\ca-bundle.trust.crt
/etc/ssl/certs -> \??\/etc\pki\tls\certs
/lib/security/cacerts -> \??\/etc\pki\ca-trust\extracted\java\cacerts
/usr/share/doc/groff-1.22.4/pdf/mom-pdf.pdf ->
\??\/usr\share\doc\groff-1.22.4\examples\mom\mom-pdf.pdf
In particular, we noticed that /etc/ssl/certs being invalid breaks git.
