Now that's funny...
Ehm... are you using an ext filesystem, or fat?
Indeed i'm using a FAT filesystem with my linux OS, [edited] but the point is that i thought i'd removed that problem with a trick i read somewhere [edit : not to mount it in utf8 or something]. Apparently the problem is still there.
So i tried your actually smart suggestion
just delete them, and let svn update restore them
It's simple yet elegant. And, go figure, they are updated in uppercase :
Code: Select all
$ svn update
Restored 'AUTHORS'
Restored 'NEWS'
Restored 'README'
At revision 10772.
Alas ! The system is somewhat shtoopid here and keeps the
Code: Select all
Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found
Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found
...and when i ls my directory, i read them all in lowercase again
Code: Select all
$ ls
acctserver.ico buildrpm configure.ac English.lproj m4scripts resource.h ts.ico
acinclude.auld cgi-accountserver copying icon2.ico Makefile.am Resources.aps undos.pl
acinclude.m4 ChangeLog cursor1.cur icon3.ico makerelease.bash Resources.rc vc98
aclocal.auld config.guess cvsroot icon4.ico missing Resources.RES VegaStrikeOSXApp.pbproj
aclocal.m4 config.h.in CYGWIN.NOTES install news saveinterface VegaStrikeOSX.icns
authors config.log depcomp install-sh objconv src vegastrike.spec
autom4te.cache config.status DOCUMENTATION intel-mac-conf.sh readme stringsort.cpp
boost config.sub dossify.pl launcher README.MACOSX.rtf ToDo.txt
bootstrap-sh configure doxygenConfig license.txt README.sgi tools
The point is, it should have worked when i changed the names to lowercase in Makefile.am. Is someone to know where everything is addressed so that i can correct everything dealing with news, authors and readme ? And again, why is the thing able to run install ? I've got it in lowercase and it's looking for it in uppercase !
Code: Select all
Makefile.am: installing `./INSTALL'
Now i'm puzzled.
