Closed yukio-takeuchi closed 4 years ago

On Ubuntu 18.04 sudo make install failed with following error message

In my linux PC, there was previously installed admb on /usr/local. It seems that make tried cp directory ../build/admb under the existing directory /usr/local/admb. However since there was already a link /usr/local/admb/admb linked to /usr/local/admb/bin/admb, this caused error cp: cannot overwrite non-directory '/usr/local/admb/admb' with directory '../build/admb' This probably can be fixed either by changing 

cp -Rvf ../build/admb $(INSTALL_DIR)admb

to 

cp -Rvf ../build/admb $(INSTALL_DIR)

or

cp -Rvf ../build/admb/* $(INSTALL_DIR)admb

I have no idea if it happend on my PC or is common install failure
