croutoncycle - broken symlink #9

Closed mdeguzis closed 8 years ago

mdeguzis commented 8 years ago

I don't see in code where croutoncycle is installed, so perhaps this is my own issue, but I wanted to be sure. The file in /usr/local/bin does not exist. Is it possible there is a missed install step?

How do I switch to Fedora? Type croutoncycle :0 to another terminal or press CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+F2.

Broken link (red text)

ls -la /bin/croutoncycle
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 sept 27 13:42 /bin/croutoncycle -> /usr/local/bin/croutoncycle

Copying /usr/local/crouton-fedora/chroots/fedora/usr/local/bin/croutoncycle to /usr/local/bin/ seemed to work ok.

Maybe it is unclear (again), you need to execute croutoncycle :0 in a crosh shell, not Fedora shell. The binaries are installed with crouton, but I never experienced this issue. Does CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+F2 key combo work?

Also if you used a different path with -p parameter the binaries would be installed in that path rather than the default one. Maybe this is the issue?

Cheers.

I did use a custom path, that's likely why I had to copy the binary to /usr/local/bin

Closing this, since I think this is how Crouton is intended to work. If you use a custom prefix you have to make a symlink manually.
