<h2 class="chapter">13 Bootstrapping</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Suppose you have a stow directory all set up and ready to go:
|
|
<samp><span class="file">/usr/local/stow/perl</span></samp> contains the Perl installation,
|
|
<samp><span class="file">/usr/local/stow/stow</span></samp> contains Stow itself, and perhaps you have
|
|
other packages waiting to be stowed. You'd like to be able to do this:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="example"> cd /usr/local/stow
|
|
stow -vv *
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p class="noindent">but <samp><span class="command">stow</span></samp> is not yet in your <samp><span class="env">PATH</span></samp>. Nor can you do this:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="example"> cd /usr/local/stow
|
|
stow/bin/stow -vv *
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p class="noindent">because the ‘<samp><span class="samp">#!</span></samp>’ line at the beginning of <samp><span class="command">stow</span></samp> tries to
|
|
locate Perl (usually in <samp><span class="file">/usr/local/bin/perl</span></samp>), and that won't be
|
|
found. The solution you must use is:
|
|
|
|
<pre class="example"> cd /usr/local/stow
|
|
perl/bin/perl stow/bin/stow -vv *
|
|
</pre>
