A user who was using Windows without administrative permissions reported to me that BridgeStan was failing to install the C++ sources due to a permissions error.
Some investigating showed that this was due to the symlink in
rust/src
, since symlinks are always permission 0777. After some digging, I found that GNU tar supports replacing symlinks with their targets by passing-h
/--dereference
, and in fact recommends doing this:Unfortunately this will only begin to take effect in the next release, and we're unable to update previous releases due to the Julia artifact containing a hash of those tarfiles.
