Thanks for spending time on this. Like I said it is really a minor issue.
Unfortunately I couldn’t make it work. Might be a misunderstanding on my part.
Did a git pull and saw your recent change 93d42…
Went with the configure & make route and installed the kawa distribution in a directory (KAWA_HOME)
kawa/
├── bin
│ ├── kawa -> /Users/raupach/opt/kawa/share/kawa/bin/kawa
│ └── qexo
└── share
├── info
│ ├── dir
│ └── kawa.info <http://kawa.info/>
├── kawa
│ ├── bin
│ │ └── kawa
│ └── lib
│ └── kawa.jar
└── man
└── man1
├── kawa.1
└── qexo.1
8 directories, 8 files
$
Now, If I do a ./kawa in the bin directory of KAWA_HOME I end up with the recent failure message:
$ ./kawa
readlink: illegal option -- f
usage: readlink [-n] [file ...]
Error: Could not find or load main class kawa.repl
$
This hasn’t happened before the change. I checked with the binary installation and there you can do just a ./kawa without this error. (It does work in the share/kawa/bin directory though)
If I symlink to KAWA_HOME/bin/kawa the issue remains. Same readlink error message.
