Remove symlinks to allow use on FSs w/o symlink support. #1011

Open spyysalo opened 11 years ago

spyysalo commented 11 years ago

The file layout on the server currently uses at least the following symlinks

brat/client/lib$ ls -l jquery{,-ui}.min.js
lrwxrwxrwx 1 smp smp 19 Sep 20  2012 jquery.min.js -> jquery-1.7.1.min.js
lrwxrwxrwx 1 smp smp 30 Feb  1 08:51 jquery-ui.min.js -> jquery-ui-1.8.16.custom.min.js

causing the server to break on FSs that don't have symlinks. This should be fixed.

See #1010 more details.

Can't we just have the installation script fix this if it is on an inferior file system?

Yeah, that's what I suggested over on #1010. On the other hand, library upgrades are so uncommon that I don't think it would cause any trouble to just store the libs without the version name in the first place.
