Re: cygport: keepdir directive doesn't work

Hi group,

When creating a package, I need some empty directories in the release, but cygport
install removes them.

I tried both 'keepdir' and 'keepdirs', but to no avail. I'm using version 0.16.0-1.

Cheers,
Daniel

work fine for me packaging octave

        keepdir /usr/lib/octave/${OR}/site/exec/${ARC}
        keepdir /usr/lib/octave/${OR}/site/oct/${ARC}
        keepdir /usr/lib/octave/api-v49+/site/exec/${ARC}
        keepdir /usr/lib/octave/site/oct/api-v49+/${ARC}
...
        keepdir /usr/lib/octave/site/exec
        keepdir /usr/lib/octave/site/oct


 $ cygcheck -l octave |grep exec
/usr/lib/octave/3.8.2/exec/x86_64-unknown-cygwin/octave-gui.exe
/usr/lib/octave/3.8.2/site/exec/.keep-octave
/usr/lib/octave/api-v49+/site/exec/.keep-octave
/usr/lib/octave/site/exec/.keep-octave
